MSP4530 and gdbproxy.



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.
