Unable to access FTDI device with either libftdi or FTD2XX

How to check that FT232RL with AVR are connected and ready ?

Hello,

your chip is a simple FTDI chip without the MPSSE engine, to my knowledge. xc3sprog needs MPSSE. Look at cablelist.txt for supported chips and VID/PID combos.

In prinziple , the bitbang machine could also do JTAG, at probably must lower speed. This needs to be implemented. Feel free to contribute an implementation.
