I have an SB-Freeduino (FT232 FTDI and ATMega328 processor), and I cannot, for the life of me, get this whore to take a program...

I see the USB device come on-line

Code:
battlelap ~ # dmesg
<snip>

[352930.582028] usb 3-1.2: FTDI USB Serial Device converter now attached to ttyUSB0

And the Arduino sketch environment/ide sees; I have manually set the board to Duemilanove and the processor to ATMega328, and when I try to write one of the example sketches to it (I'm using File > Examples > Basic > Blink), and when I upload it, I see the following in the console...

Code:
Sketch uses 1,030 bytes (3%) of program storage space. Maximum is 30,720 bytes.
Global variables use 9 bytes (0%) of dynamic memory, leaving 2,039 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 2,048 bytes.

WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK?!?

I've tried all the programmers available...

Reading through the `avrdude` man page, I see there are some options to specify the product, provided avrdude was compiled with libusb support (which I checked; `ldd \`which avrdude\`` shows libusb-0.1.so.4 is provided by my system.) SO, I tried `avrdude` from command-line...

Code:
[1]battlelap ~ # avrdude -p ATmega328 -b 56000 -n -P /dev/ttyUSB0 -c stk500
avrdude: stk500v2_ReceiveMessage(): timeout
avrdude: stk500v2_ReceiveMessage(): timeout
avrdude: stk500v2_ReceiveMessage(): timeout
avrdude: stk500v2_ReceiveMessage(): timeout
avrdude: stk500v2_ReceiveMessage(): timeout
avrdude: stk500v2_ReceiveMessage(): timeout
avrdude: stk500v2_getsync(): timeout communicating with programmer

avrdude: stk500v2_ReceiveMessage(): timeout
avrdude: stk500v2_ReceiveMessage(): timeout
^C

I've googled this and asked elsewhere, was wondering if anyone here might have a clue how to unfuck my stupidity.

Have you tried holding reset on the board, issuing the command with the programmer and immediately releasing reset?

yes... I went through and re-soldered my points and holy fuck if it isn't working now. -_-

so rage. much anger. very pissed.

that means the serial port is open in some program, you can try killing network manager because sometimes n/m tries to use it as modem. especially for ttyACMx devices

so, not actually... the issue was my soldering. I fixed it.

so, has anyone integrated any wireless shields to an arduino project? I'm curious at how to integrate wireless communication with my arduino project, and I haven't gone to the trouble of buying one to test it.

What type of wireless communication are you looking at? Bluetooth, WiFi, or RF?
