The early sample '169s had a different signature from the production
parts. Even the kickstart tools had some problems with it.

Greetings.
I have been using msp430-gdb on Linux via the Flash Emulation Tool and
gdbproxy. It works fine with the MSP430F149 member of the processor
family, but if I use the MSP430F169 chip, gdbproxy doesn't recognize the
type and gives the following message.
info: msp430: Target device is a 'Device unknown' (type 0)
notice: msp430-gdbproxy: waiting on TCP port 2000gdbproxy
I presume gdbproxy has not been built with the MSP430F169 option.
Am I right in saying that gdbproxy is not open source and so I have to
get a precompiled binary?
I have downloaded the most recent version available from sourceforge -
version is gdb-proxy-5.1.1-20031106
Is there a version available which works with MSP430F169 chip?
Is there a workaround?
Help appreciated.
J. Casey.
