There is a command line switch that displays all
the supported programmers but I can't find it, maybe ask in the AVR-dude mailing
list.
Also look in the avrdude.conf file this see if it
is there or a similar device. Also check the Olimex docs to see if it is
compatible with something else.
I see there was a GUI released for AVR-dude 2 days
ago, the link is http://sourceforge.net/projects/avrdude-gui/
Note: I've never used so I don't know anything
about it.
Otherwise download the WinAVR distro for Windows
that has it all setup within it.
If that doesn't work goto www.avrfreaks.net and click on AVR GCC at
the top.

Ok, following Dingo's advice, I'm trying to use AVR-dude to program an
ATmega16 using an Olimex AVR-PG1B programmer. NOTE: this programmer plugs
into my serial port.
I just downloaded avrdude 4.3 (I couldn't find a winXP copy of 4.4) and
don't know which programmer hardware to use. The AVR-PG1B is supposed to
be ponyprog compatible, so I tried "pony-stk200" but that aparently uses
the parallel port, not the serial port.
Has anybody used avr-dude software with olimex AVR-PG1B serial-port hardware?
Also note that I can use AVR-dude to program a chip using my STK500
hardware, so I know that at least my mega16 chip is good and that Avr-dude
works (just not sure with my AVR-PG1B).
