No PICkit 2 found

I am getting the "No PICkit 2 found." message. System is dual boot and
works with Windows.
A ICD2 works on same linux system. Rebuilt with MAX debug.

pk2cmd -V

usb_os_find_devices: Couldn't open /dev/bus/usb/006/002

No PICkit 2 found.

Please post the full log. There are something missing here.

Have you tried this patch for pk2usb.cpp?
//#if HAVE_LIBUSB_INTERRUPT_MODE
// latest libusb: interrupt mode, works with all kernels
# define PICKIT_USB(direction) usb_interrupt_##direction //only keep this line
//#else
// older libusb: bulk mode, will only work with older kernels
//# define PICKIT_USB(direction) usb_bulk_##direction
//#endif

What does "lsusb" says about PICkit 2?

The permissions on /dev/bus/usb/xxx seems to be the problem.

-P is a required option

I put the changes in /etc/udev/rules.d/26-microchip

#PICKit 2
ATTR{idVendor}=="04d8", ATTR{idProduct}=="0033", OWNER:="root",
GROUP:="microchip",MODE:="0666"

Now to get c30 to generate images!

Glad to know that you solved the problems.

I will update this wiki.

I've used Fedore version since Core 6. But the only
exception is Fedora 8 since it failed to be installed last time.

Xiaofan,

Thanks. Successfully burned a 18F2620 part using pk2cmd.
Required a 1 line change to the Makefile.
