Bug Description

Binary package hint: picprog

Hi.

Trying to write a program in a pic12f629 results in the following:

soulnet@alderahan:/tmp$ picprog -i test.hex -p /dev/ttyS0 --erase --burn

/dev/ttyS0: id 0x0f90: detected pic12f629 version 0x10
Device pic12f629, program memory: 1024, data memory: 128.
Calibration word at 0x03ff preserved as 0x3454
Calibration bits 0x3000 in configuration word preserved as 0x3000
Erased and removed code protection.
Burning program memory,/dev/ttyS0:0000: programmed=2829, read=3fff:unable to verify pic while programming.
Is code protection enabled, or does the chip need to be
erased completely before programming?
Use --erase option to disable code protection.

As I've used the "--erase" option, I can't figure out where's the problem. The device is detected correctly
Tried "icprog" with wine and the PIC gets programmed and verified ok, so it's not a faulty programmer or chip.
I'd really love to use picprog instead of icprog through wine, so I can make any tests you suggest.

Thanks in advance.

How about if you use --slow option?

I tried that too (forgot to mention it) with the same results. My CPU runs at 2000Mhz, if it helps.

Is this symptom still reproducible in 8.10 beta or later?

I have released picprog-1.9.0 that includes a lot of changes to timings and ways of resetting the device and the chip being programmed. It looks like Ubuntu has not upgraded to that. I could not find in my email if I have asked David to check that out, so no information yet. I suggest though to upgrade the Ubuntu package to 1.9.0.

I'll try to set up my old PC. I bought a new one and just realized it doesn't have a serial port :(
