Thank you and and "Mr.Yuki who developed GUI-wrapper of avrdude.exe." for this GUI wrapper. I have a USBtinyISB programmer and was able to get this wrapper program to work fine with it.
Finally a GUI AVRDUDE interface for us command line challenged types Highly recommended.
Can't you just create an appropriate avrdude programmer description, and skip the wrapper business? Once it's verified to work, submit it back to the avrdude developers, get it integrated into the next release, and the whole world benefits. Plus, no arduino IDE hacking is needed.
Hi bohne.
You already made this !
I want to try your method. But, I can't find it in http://www.luminet.cc.
Would you tell me detailed url?
Hi kg4wsv.
I think so too. I hope this Bitbang integrate into the arduino IDE.
But, I don't have skills of programming to make a Bitbang avrdude-writer for arduino IDE.
I will release the IDE soon, please be patient for a few days.
I did the same as you did I guess. I compiled a special version of avrdude and modified the Java files of the IDE and recompiled it.
I did this for Windows and Mac OS X, but because the Mac FTDI drivers are bad there are some limitations.

I don't think I was very clear. Let me try again.
First off, a disclaimer: I could be wrong.
avrdude uses a configuration file that describes the programmer. Included are some programmers that use bit-bang serial connections (e.g. the ponyprog serial).
I think that an appropriate description of the bit-banged connections placed in avrdude.conf could allow avrdude to work directly, without the need for a wrapper program. This has added benefits, such as the ability to work with non-windows OSes, and a silution that could be submitted for inclusion in the avrdude distribution, or failing that the arduino distribution.
There is a feature request in the bugzilla system of avrdude that asks for FTDI Bit Bang support. And some patches for it exist. But I guess two avrdude releases were published and there is still not FTDI BitBang support yet. So at the moment we must supply our own avrdude version along with the official one. Of course it would be great if the official avrdude release would support this Bit Bang programming mode.
never tried this, maybe you can investigate it? I think the VCP driver has a bad timing behavior but maybe the idea is just too simple and no one tried it before...
I want to know if it's possible to burn bootloader in a diecimila with an atmega8 using the parallel programmer. I've already tried but it says that the avr does not respond, that was expected the signature of the atmega8.

It is possible, but this thread discusses the FTDI BitBang hack. You can use the modified Arduino board to burn the bootloader to your ATMega8 chip.
Parallel Programmers often have timing problems, I don't use them anymore.
I followed the instructions in the photo shown below but THEY DID NOT WORK:
I checked the board schematic and I got it to work.
This should work for the Duemilanove or the Diecimila (I used the Duemilanove) but I checked the schematic for both.
The way I wired it was
1 - 12
2 - 13
3 - 11
4 - reset.
I am sorry for using the same colour for all and the bad photo but it is the best I can do!
I also had a problem with the GUI yuki-lab.jp Version 1.0.5
If the file name is too long it gives error. I had the GUI in my documents and I moved it to program files. I think the long file names caused problems.
I got it working now so I am happy.
Also if the "display window" option is ticked it will not program
