10 years ago --- Quote Start --- Hi, I tested it so it works. The host detects the board. Now the big challenge is to create a gadget for the board, so that it can communicate with the host. I've found a lot of thing about gadgets. It is a hard to understand but i'm still searching because i want to learn about usb protocol and how to make gadgets. i found u_serial gadget : https://www.kernel.org/doc/documentation/usb/gadget_serial.txt ."On the device-side Linux system, the gadget serial driver looks like a serial device". That is what i need to establish a communication between the computer and the board. I have downloaded kernel(v3.12.0) sources for de1 soc. and i will compile the u_serial module. But i'm affraid that i have to add another things... Can someone from altera or terasic just tell me if i have to add some configuration or something like that??? I'm lost --- Quote End --- Hi JalaIT, Can you tell me exactly what you did to get the host to detect the board. Did you short the ID port AND connect the D+ and D- to a USB connector? If so, did you have to remove the connection to the USB HUB?
