Things you can do:

1) Why ttyS1? Are you sure it's not ttyS0 ?
2) Check the laptop's bios to see what ports are enabled.
3) Try the same programmer+chip in a different computer, to make sure
that the programmer and chip are working.
4) Use the -dpart=auto option (and no --upload, --erase or --download
options) and see if uisp is able to detect your chip at all.
5) Try avrdude, another avr programmer, see if you have more luck with it.

Good luck with it.
