[AVaRICE-user] EDBG/ATATMEL-ICE support

[Robin K. <ro...@cr...>]

Hi all-
	I was just wondering if there were any updates to support for
the EDBG (weird, new, HID-based) protocol for newer Atmel debugging
devices.  I have an ATATMEL-ICE debugger/ICSP, as well as an
ATmega256RFR2 Xplained Pro kit (with a USB interface and a debugging IC
(not as sophisticated as the ICE) which speaks EDBG exclusively).  I
would *love* to be able to debug software from my Linux machine (which
also has a much newer and more capable toolchain, and would in general
make for a more productive development platform), but currently I have
to attach the board or debugger to a Windows machine running Atmel
studio to be able to fiddle about with software as it's running on an
AVR.
	I realize that EDBG is somewhat different from the previous
(saner, it sounds like) protocols, but my hope was that there was at
least something preliminary that had been done in terms of scaffolding
for (at some point) supporting the newer protocol.
	Thank you guys so much for your time and all of your hard work.
