Played around during DebiennaTreff. reox got his controller working, but everything was extremely erratic until he put a blue LED directly between 3.3V and GND. Several experiments later, it turned out that a 10µF capacitor works as well.

chrysn's ATmega168 seems to have a hardware problem (or just can't do 16MHz at 3.3V, which is unspecified for that part) – a new ATmega does the trick (the old one is now marked with orange nail polish to avoid confusion).

First program to work was the hid-data example, which seems to be quite suitable for that purpose anyway.
