Hi all, I'm also one of the new Ardunio people, and my question is about the atMega chip used as the USB to serial interface. Is this code available, and is there a tutorial on the information that is supplied back to the computer as to the device. What can be placed in it and so on.

Regards,

Dave M.

Head over to this page: http://arduino.cc/en/Main/ArduinoBoardUno and scroll down to the paragraph titled "Programming". There are links to the source code in the Atmel 8u2, programming and so on.

You need an ICSP like the MKII if you want to put the arduino bootloader on a new microcontroller. Do you have one? They generally look like this: http://www.raphnet.net/divers/avrprog/ispMKII.jpg

If not, you need to get one before you can use a new atmega in the arduino.
