Hi Embeddedesigner,

Thanks for reaching out.

Based on your description, it appears there are no issues when compiling the design example in Quartus. However, you are encountering driver compatibility issues when attempting to install the driver on newer Linux systems.

Unfortunately, in the official release, we currently only provide the Linux driver for CentOS 7.0 (64-bit) with the 3.10.514 kernel. Windows drivers are not supported. Users will need to manually update the Linux driver’s kernel API to ensure compatibility with their current operating system.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Thanks.

Best Regards,

Ven
