If you still has the original version 1.01 firmware, you need to upgrade
the firmware. V1.10 is the latest firmware.
You can try Python based pyk to upgrade the firmware as well or use
Windows for that job,
You can set up hotplug script so that pk2 can work without being root.
You can try the following. It works for me under Ubuntu Breezy and FC4
32-bit Linux. This may not work under FC5. It is said that you need to use
udev rules for FC5.
mcuee@ubuntu:/etc/hotplug$ cat usb.usermap
pickit2 0x0003 0x04d8 0x0033 0x0000 0x0000 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00 0x00
0x00 0x00000 000
mcuee@ubuntu:/etc/hotplug/usb$ cat pickit2
#!/bin/bash
if [ "${ACTION}" = "add" ] && [ -f "${DEVICE}" ]
then
echo "changing ${DEVICE} pickit 1 or 2" >> /tmp/debug-hotplug
chown root "${DEVICE}"
chgrp pickit "${DEVICE}"
chmod 660 "${DEVICE}"
fi
