Hi,

I can not upload to arduino duemilanove. Arduino display:

avrdude: Yikes! Invalid device signature.
Double check connections and try again, or use -F to override
this check.

I tried:avrdude -F -v -v -v -pm168 -cavrispmkii -P/dev/ttyUSB0 -D -Uflash:w:Blink.hex . But it also blocks:

avrdude done. Thank you.

I can't burn bootloarder AVRISP mkll whith Arduino:

avrdude: usbdev_open(): did not find any USB device "usb"

If I choose t burn bootloarder AVRISP, there is other problem:

avrdude: stk500_getsync(): not in sync: resp=0x1c
avrdude: stk500_2_ReceiveMessage(): timeout
avrdude: stk500_2_ReceiveMessage(): timeout
avrdude: stk500_2_ReceiveMessage(): timeout

Please help me. How to make a upload?

Cheers,

Herve Darce

Got anything connected to pin 0 or 1?

Ps. Are you trying to upload a sketch or burn a bootloader? Make sure you have the correct COM port and device picked.

Hi,

I blocked on the "upload" of arduino tutorial Arduino Tutorial - Lesson 1 - Let there be blink!
My arduino duemilanove is new. It has never been used.

I am trying to upload a sketch Blink (Files>Sketchbook>Examples>Digital>Blink)

When I make a upload, here is what happens:

  1. The RX and TX LED flashes
  2. Then the L LED flashes (LED between GND et 1)
  3. Then the RX LED only flashes
  4. And finally, the RX del off

I can not make upload:

Binary sketch size: 1176 bytes (of a 14336 byte maximum)

avrdude: Yikes! Invalid device signature.
Double check connections and try again, or use -F to override
this check.

  • I have nothing connected to arduino board
  • On the board, the green led is on.
  • The port /dev/ttyUSB0 ist selected (Tools>Serial Port)
  • It is unnecessary to do a reset. But I did it anyway

I have Gentoo Linux and I am a novice in electronics. I don't understand.

That tutorial seems to be slightly out of date. In the step where it says "Select Chip", you should instead "Select Board", choosing the board type. Tools > Board > Arduino Diecimilia. If you have a Duemilanove but you do not see that choice in the GUI, you can still select the predecessor Diecimilia.

I have already chosen Arduino Diecimilia. We can see in preferences.txt:

board=diecimila

The arduino duemilanove may have a defect?

I resolved my porblem.

The problem is the same as that presented on pages:
http://www.arduino.cc/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1191580753
http://www.nabble.com/-patch--6530--Arduino-improvement-td17521999.html

For Gentoo Linux:
sudo emerge -C avrdude
wget http://www.arduino.cc/files/avrdude-5.4-arduino-src.tgz
cd avrdude-5.4-arduino
sudo ./configure
sudo make
sudo make install
sudo ln -s /usr/local/bin/avrdude /usr/bin/avrdude
sudo ln -s /usr/local/etc/avrdude.conf /etc/avrdude.conf

A note for the team arduino. Can you use the software avrdube standard? Can you mention in the FAQ this problem?

Thank you for all

Herve Darce

I added something to the troubleshooting page about this.

For the arduino Duemilanove with the 328 chip one should set the baud rate to 57600 on the avrdude command line with " -b 57600 "
