No there isn't. The mega128 is a bit funny in that the MOSI/MISO ISP
lines use TXD1 and RXD1 pins rather than the SPI port pins as on most
other AVRs.

Also the fact that the fuses have been reprogrammed to the exact factory
defaults is a bit bizarre. I can't imagine how this would happen
accidentally.

It obviously sounds like they were never programmed in the first place.
Maybe they slipped through. Is there any E^2 or RTC that was supposed to be
programmed too? Is that there?
