$ avrdude -qq -c tumpa_jtag -p m328p
avrdude error: cannot find programmer id tumpa_jtag

However, the programmer is known to AVRDUDE; it just so happens that it's not compatible with m328p:

$ avrdude -qq -c tumpa_jtag -p m2560
avrdude error: error -3 occurred: device not found
avrdude error: unable to open port usb for programmer tumpa_jtag

Also avrdude error: error -3 occurred: device not found doesn't look good. Better perhaps sth like avrdude error: device not found (-3)
