Looking for Linux PCIe driver for CycloneIV Starter Kit

Hi,

I'm setting up CycloneIV Starter kit using PCIe.

Has anyone tried using this board under Linux? Really appreciate it if getting some directions to proven Linux PCIe driver, setup process ... etc ...

I'm totally blackout :D

Thank you guys a bunch.

Jeff

    Hello Jeff,

    a proven solution can be found here: http://www.lancero-pcie.com/

    Regarding Cyclone IV:

    Lancero Bridge uses only 6% of the smallest Cyclone IV device.

    Lancero achieves full Avalon bus speed even with the slowest speed grade ‘-8’ Cyclone IV devices.
