What do you mean with "board specific implementation". Its for a cyclon2 FPGA. I am not a FPGA specialist, but I think there were some differences between this FPGAs and so I made a new File ... >>>> Is there any interest in getting this fixed ? >>> Sure. >> But implementing the Altera path in a clean way means discarding the >> ACEX1K and breaking the alpr borad. >> I'm quite sure that Wolfgang will reject those changes. > > Yes, I will reject this too. :) Why you break the alpr board. It uses the common/cyclon2.c? (OK, we should make a include/cyclon2.h and then we can drop the ACEX1K, right?) >> How can we solve this ? > > By trying to solve it in a compatible way.

Stefan, do you know, if we have somewhere an alpr board, so we can do tests with it, if we change code? bye Heiko -- DENX Software Engineering GmbH, MD: Wolfgang Denk & Detlev Zundel HRB 165235 Munich, Office: Kirchenstr.5, D-82194 Groebenzell, Germany ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
