avrdude command weird

[wenhuizhang]

Hi, I tried to write hfuse and lfuse, and it seems like there are something weird with mac version of avrdude.

It recognize H and L fuse in a way I could not understand. Do you mind if explain it a little bit please? "(H:DA, E:05, L:FF)" with "-Uhfuse:w:0x05:m -Uefuse:w:0xda:m -Ulfuse:w:0xff:m"

client-104-39-67-216:bootloader WenhuiZhang$ avrdude -p m2560 -c usbasp -P /dev/ttyUSB0 -B 115200 -Uhfuse:w:0x05:m  -Uefuse:w:0xda:m  -Ulfuse:w:0xff:m

avrdude: set SCK frequency to 0 Hz
avrdude: warning: cannot set sck period. please check for usbasp firmware update.

avrdude done.  Thank you.

This isn't a general repository for questions about avrdude. This is a special version with support for the linuxspi interface for use with the raspberry pi or beaglebone and any questions should be specific to that interface.

One issue I see is that your efuse value does not appear to be correct. You are trying to program bit 5, which the ATMega2560 does not support.

I suggest you ask this on a more general service such as https://electronics.stackexchange.com/

Got it, any idea which is the official repo for arduino on github please? Many Thanks !

There isn't one, actually. The official SVN repository is here: https://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/avrdude/

Communication is via a mailing list: https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/avrdude-dev

Awesome source @kcuzner , I will post through the email list then:)
