So I was trying to install drivers for my canakit programmer. Unfortunately there are no new CanaKit 2 programs. I then resorted to installing MPlab and attempting to program some sample code to blink an LED. I found the dot asm code on another forum. My programmer was identified by MPlab but my computer froze in the process of uploading the program to the programmer.
.
I want to eventually learn assembler, but I like to be way ahead on my plans. My question is this; is it possible to use MPlab on linux or should I look elsewhere for newer chips to program? I have a bunch of these 16f877a chips in the parts that I have on hand. That is the reason I ask. Thanks in advance for your help.
