hi ankur,

how do you connect the vga?

there is no avalon bus vga support in kernel yet.

maybe you can help to port it. http://forum.niosforum.com/work2/style_emoticons/<#emo_dir#>/smile.gif

I can&#39;t understand this statement, I mean if I put a VGA IP core (third party) in hw config (sopc builder) and VGA core handles frame buffer mechanism then last thing is kernel support required. Ok I agree that I have to either port or write a new frame buffer driver.

I hope my understanding is correct or pls correct it with you comments.

If I am going in wrong direction then pls suggest or inform me.

thanks

Ankur
