Hi Sparkfun, I just purchased a pocket AVR ISP from ya. And I get this error in Arduino IDE.
Arduino: 1.8.9 (Linux), Board: “Arduino/Genuino Uno”
Sketch uses 6352 bytes (19%) of program storage space. Maximum is 32256 bytes.
Global variables use 446 bytes (21%) of dynamic memory, leaving 1602 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 2048 bytes.
avrdude: Warning: cannot open USB device: Permission denied
avrdude: Error: Could not find USBtiny device (0x1781/0xc9f)
avrdude: Error: Could not find USBtiny device (0x1781/0xc9f)
This report would have more information with
“Show verbose output during compilation”
option enabled in File → Preferences.
Please research!!! Many people have this problem and no one has a real solution.
I have tried creating a permissions file under /etc/udev/rules.d but that doesn’t ether work.
Also, this programmer (does) work on the Raspberry PI, oddly enough!
