The last rev of osx-avr had avrdude5.2 bundled with it. I tested it with the mkII on the ppc and on the stk on intel. I got compalints about the mkII hanging for several minutes on the intel before programming. I dug around and found several threads where this was supposed to have been resolved with 5.2 and some which referenced the clock on the programmer. I was hoping that this would be resoved with the new version so I put it off.

Today I was finally able to sit down with this. When I tested the old version I was able to program fine on the ppc but the intel mac hung for several minutes before programming the chip. Then I ran up the new code and found the same thing. I ran across a few people who just hacked around it.

I notice that with the new version the avr-dragon seems to have the same porblem so I just copied the hack for the avrispmkII and compiled it for the intel macs.

Attached it the hack.

( As the origional code works fine on osx-ppc I think this patch only applies if building on osx for intel. )

I should have a binary rev of this out by the end of the year (in an hour or so)
Very Happy

Happy New Year.
