This is probably the exact adapter I'm having trouble with. Picture:

Yes, it is that one.
This is a sample command you might want to look at:
/usr/local/bin/uisp -dprog=avr910 -dserial=/dev/cu.usbserial0
-dpart=auto --erase --upload --verify if=rom.hex
You might want to change -dprog if you don't have that kind of
external hardware. /dev/cu.usbserial0 is the default location of the
serial port. Check out this:
/usr/local/bin/uisp
Obviously, I meant /usr/local/bin/uisp --help :)
This command is probably the right one, but I realized that my
programmer was not supported by uisp, so I must buy another one. I
have a "SI-prog" which works with ponyprog. But it seems that it's not
possible to install ponyprog on mac os x, and I can't get it work
under Virtual PC with my adapter.
My problem with this adapter is that I have to reinsert it between
every programming. When programming from AVR Studio in Virtual PC
though, it works! And the usb-serial adapter is NOT taken over by VPC
at the USB level, but only at the serial port level (COM1 is
redirected to /dev/cu.usbserial0).
I tried to do that, but it doesn't work with ponyprog...
Do you think I should change my programmer? Do you know which one I
have to buy to be sure that it works with atmega8535?
Weeell... you shouldn't listen to me, since me setup obviously is
flawed:)
Like Theodore suggests, an STK500 will do everything you'd want. If
you're a little economically minded and can make do without the more
advanced features, choose the AVRISP. You would probably just want to
program ISP anyway, and the only use of the advanced features that
springs to mind is the enabling of the internal RC oscillator.
Instead of buying an AVRISP, you can build one according to these
instructions:

With the suggested swapping of the 1200 to a 2313 with improved
software of this site (look at the bottom):

If you're not experienced, you might wonder a thing or two about that
scheme. Feel free to ask me... or save yourself the hassle and buy
something:)
