PCIe x16 does not recognize Altera Cyclone V in Centos 7

Hello everyone. I am trying to configure a Cyclone V on Centos 7 through the PCI Express 16 port and the FPGA does not recognize me. The FPGA port is 4x. I currently have another PCI Express 16 port...

Interesting, I had never seen a PCI-E-based Cyclone V board before. I guess you are using the Terasic OpenVINO Starter Kit, right?

Anyway, Have you followed Terasic's instructions for getting OpenCL to work with your board? Specifically, you first need to program the board through JTAG with an OpenCL image to enable the PCI-E core on the FPGA and then reboot your machine for the board to be detected via PCI-E. It won't be detected out of the box.
