Yeah, I have tried working with USARTs by themself.. maybe my issue is that I don't have C skills.. because I see all the code, and when I try to use it.. there are missing things.
oh well, thanks for all the responses

For avr, have you looked on avrfreaks.com yet ?
Lots of code for the different compilers.

No not at all.
IMO Philips still have a way to go to meet Atmels level of
documentation. And atmels website is a thousand times better than Philips.
You can view tables fullscreen properly. Things a half decent web
designer should be able to do very easily.
Compare these two links
http://www.semiconductors.philips.com/markets/mms/products/microcontrollers/product_catalog/16_32bit/index.html
http://www.atmel.com/dyn/products/param_table.asp?family_id=607&OrderBy=part_no&Direction=ASC
Additionally Atmel lets you download it to use in excel
or
http://www.microchip.com/stellent/idcplg?IdcService=SS_GET_PAGE&nodeId=74
http://www.semiconductors.philips.com/catalog/219/282/45988/45993/45994/
and
http://www.microchip.com/ParamChartSearch/chart.aspx?branchID=1004&mid=10&lang=en&pageId=74
Lot more docs for the avr , lot more app notes.
Lot more code available on the net for the avr.
Should be able to get the usarts up and running in c , in a lot faster
than that on the avrs.
Tried getting the usarts working by themselves before adding the rest of
your code ?
