It's got a solid ground plane under the xtal, but I'm pretty sure it's a 2 layer board. It's pretty basic.  I'm trying to get some other dev boards into a usable state.  Hence my questions about CCS6 on Linux.

Noise pickup by the scope is an issue.  The Rigol  will trigger on EMI with no probes connected.

Thanks,
Reg

 Maybe your scope lines also induce some noise...
 
 
 
 Is there a solid ground plane below the xtal and the MSP430?
 This is a strong 
 
 requirement for a stable clock. (in fact a continous GND it
 is a must for the 
 
 whole board, you can not work with 2 layer boards today,
 except for very 
 
 simple boards and wiring on one layer only).
