Maybe a problem with the handling of RTCK. I don't know much about the
Segger J-Link/SAM-ICE but as far as I know the adaptive clocking can be
disabled and fixed clocking can be used which should help. I also do not
use SAM-BA and don't know if or where the clocking-mode can be
configured in SAM-BA. If there is no option in SAM-BA try if you can
used JLINK.EXE from the Segger Software-Package to change the setting.

Thanks Martin,
I tried changing the settings, to no avail. In Samba NOTHING can be set,
Changing in JLINK gave the same error, even down to 2 kHz clocking! I
will now skip the Samba approach and run with ARM-JTAG-USB and Open-OCD
instead. Although I have a little problem starting up the debug session.
It continuous load 27% !!! Jim Lynch tip with Norwegian reset
(power-off/power-on) does not help. Sigh...
Best regards,
Nils
