I have managed to install gitweb to give the opportunity to other to watch the development of some of my projects. I hope in the near future to have the time to put other sources in it and eventually do some work on header and footer. The important thing is that it is there and it can be used. Inside any project page there is the URL to which you can eventually clone the software if you like or want to test it.

I’ve just brought an AVR ISP MKII programmers from atmel and I’d like to test It without having a prototype. The idea is to use the stk500 as a support for the MCU and plug the programmer on the SPROG3 connector, but nothing good came out of it. Looking around into the AVR Freaks forum I see different people post the same question, but the only reply they’ve got was from others asking “why?

This is a sample code to demonstrate how to generate a fast pwm wave with atmel atmega16 micro controller and the AVR LibC distributed in Debian 6.0 aka squeeze. A basic knowledge of the counter in atmel cpu is required, for more info see the datasheet downloadable from atmel web site. Let’s begin with the problem: I have a 4 Mhz micro controller and I want to create a 500 hz wave with variable PWM duty cycle.

Following what’s going on in Debian I’ve switched my gpg key from an old 1K SHA1 to a brand new 4K SHA512. Starting from Zack’s Blog and following to this migration howto and this ubuntu gpg howto. The old key is: pub 1024D/4F9ED407 2007-09-18 Key fingerprint = 5AA4 A815 CB95 D617 CE51 8700 6E5D 889E 4F9E D407 The new key is: pub 4096R/F2133176 2010-10-19 Key fingerprint = C1E7 9DEB FE2A 511F F70B 8025 5E01 95FA F213 3176 You can find my migration signed statement here, and my new key is here.

On newer system you may have to remove a module which auto-load himself when nokia 770 is plugged. modprobe -r cdc_phonet then download the firmware download flasher utility Flash the firmware to the 770 keeping home button pressed while powering on and usb-connected to Linux sudo ./flasher-3.0.amd64 --fiasco SU-18_2007HACKER_4.2008.7-1_PR_F5_MR0_ARM.bin --flash --reboot boot the device and check the new OS installed. Now you can migrate the OS to an external SSD device with swap space and ext3 Filesystem.
