    Hi All.

    I'm trying to get started with FF. I'm somewhat familiar with PICs but haven't been able to get FF running on my Olimex proto board.

    http://www.olimex.com/Products/PIC/Proto/PIC-USB-4550/

    I'm able to build the software and program the device without error.
    When I plug in the USB cable I get the windows USB device malfunction warning.

    I did modify line 32 of 'p18f2455-4455-4550.cfg' to read 'config PLLDIV = 5' since the olimex board has a 20 MHz crystal rather than a 12 MHz crystal.

    Is there anything else I should try?

    Thanks in advance!

    Perhaps you can review a previous thread in the 'Mailing Lists'.
    Look at 'flashforth-devel | archives'

    If you disable the IDLE_MODE in the configuration file it should work.
    I fixed this yesterday in the GIT repository so that the IDLE_MODE
    is disabled in the configuration file.
    I will also make a new archive for download.
