Installing the Identify Software Chapter 2: Installation
1. Check the parallel port driver installation by typing the following
commands:
> ls /dev/windrvr6
/dev/windrvr6
> ls -l /lib/modules/
-rwxr-xr-x 1 0 0 149382 Feb 10 14:20 windrvr6.o
This sequence determines whether the driver is installed on your
machine, whether you have the windrvr6 device file, and whether you have
write permission for the file.
2. Check that the driver is loaded:
> /sbin/lsmod | grep windrvr6
windrvr6 125536 0
> grep windrvr6 /proc/devices
254 windrvr6
If you do not have windrvr6 or if it is not loaded, this message is displayed
when you attempt to use the Identify/Identify Pro Debugger:
Failed opening Driver device (WinDriver v6.03 Jungo (c) 1997 - 2003
Build Date: Apr 14 2007 X86)
If you receive this message, you must install a windrvr6 driver. For information
on installing and configuring a Xilinx windrvr6 driver, see the
Xilinx website using these keywords: impact and linux and driver.
Altera Byteblaster Driver
The Identify/Identify Pro Debugger uses the same byteblaster driver used by
the Quartus® II design software. To debug Altera FPGAs through the JTAG
server on Linux, Quartus 2.4 and the Altera Byteblaster driver must be
installed on the Linux host.
1. To use Quartus and the byteblaster driver with the Identify/Identify Pro
RTL Debugger, set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH and PATH variables to
$QUARTUS_ROOTDIR/linux:
> echo $QUARTUS_ROOTDIR
install_dir/quartus_ii_40
> csh
% source $QUARTUS_ROOTDIR/adm/qenv.csh
