The programmer requires D2XX drivers to be installed from FTDI. The programming board, UMFTPD2A, utilises an FT4232H device to communicate with the FT9xx devices.

Drivers must be installed before using the programming utilities (FT9xxProgGUI or FT9xxProg).

Drivers for Linux are available from this page: https://ftdichip.com/drivers/d2xx-drivers/

Pay close attention to the ReadMe file and/or watch the Video Install Guide. The kernel module ftdi_sio must be removed prior to using the programming board. This does not happen automatically and sudo rmmod ftdi_sio needs to be run to remove the kernel module. There are suggestions on how to do this more easily in the section entitled "Notes on Kernel Built-in Support of FTDI devices" in the ReadMe file linked.

To use the "Bridgetek Utilities" Wizards in Eclipse the examples, hardware, drivers, and 3rdparty directories must be in a fixed location under the location pointed to by the environment variable FT9XX_TOOLCHAIN.
