Hi,
I'm using Ubuntu and I need to program pic 16f877 for my course . I
downloaded piklab and when I connect the pic from usb nothing happened i.e
Ubuntu didn't see the PIC. How can I solve this problem?

Thanx, P.

I dimly recall that you need to make yourself a member of the group that
has access to USB -- Google is your friend.

In my experience PIC is very Unix-hostile (besides which, the CPU
architectures are very ugly). I find Atmel AVR to be a lot more
Unix-friendly. TI MSP430 isn't quite as Unix-friendly as the AVR, but
it's still way better than PIC (and the MSP430 architecture is _so_
much nicer than the PIC).

If you really have no choice and have to suffer the indignity of using
a PIC, then you might try installing Windows under Qemu or one of the
other virtual machines and setting up USB pass-through.
