FIFO size

I want to generate a FIFO that is not 2^n in size. So, I can't use the MegaWizard. What are my options? Using Cyclone III.

As far as I know, there are no other options. If you aren't losing too much space why not use the 2^X? If you aren't using a dual clocked fifo just write your own. It's pretty much just a ring buffer as you would implement in C.
