Yes, it works fine. We are using superloop since Altera Version 7.2. As far as I can gather patches exists for Version 7.1 and 9.0. I made some minor changes for using the patch for Altera 9.0 from rfrazer also in Altera 9.1.

(I'm unable to post the link :confused:, you have to search the forum)

I have prepared a project for the Altera Nios2 StratixII Devkit which is based on Simple Socket Server example. Additional you need the GigE Santa Cruz board from MoreThanIP with the Marvell phy.

The patch is based on build tools therefore no changes are necessary in the original sources of the Interniche lib and TSE driver. The patch is just applied to the copy in the application directory. There is not much effort because the patch is based on scripts.

I will attch a Quartus archive with the example. After unpacking you will find the patches and the build tools scripts in the directory \software_examples.
