Hi, I'm also working with Linux and Xilinx FPGAs (Virtex-5), over this last week's I was searching on the different development environments and I think that OpenEmbedded is good option, some work has been done to support previous Virtex-4 families.
Does some knows about a low cost evaluation board for Virtex-5 platform?, I want to buy a board for my self. Some useful links http://www.armadeus.com/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page http://linuxdriverproject.org/twiki/bin/view/Main/DriversNeeded http://www.fpgadeveloper.com/ http://wiki.openembedded.net/index.php/Main_Page On 6/9/09, Gabriel Paubert <[email protected]> wrote: > On Tue, Jun 09, 2009 at 10:17:23AM +0200, xavier grave wrote: >> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- >> Hash: SHA1 >> >> Spenser Gilliland a écrit : >> > Hi, >> > >> > My name is Spenser Gilliland.
