peepsalothi. is it possible to use yosys with intel DE10-Nano boards? Cyclone V SE 5CSEBA6U23I700:07
mwkZirconiumX:00:08
ZirconiumXpeepsalot: short answer: no. long answer: I'm working on it, and maybe soon we can.00:09
peepsalotok, i'm still absolute beginner to fpga, but more open source tools are very appealing to me :)00:10
peepsalotZirconiumX: do you own one?  or is there anything I can help with testing?00:11
ZirconiumXpeepsalot: I'm at a stage where I can produce a netlist, but due to present Quartus incompatibilities (and bugs) you can't do anything with it00:12
ZirconiumXI do indeed, as part of a MiSTer00:12
peepsalotah, nice, MiSTer is one of my main reasons for interest too00:12
ZirconiumXActually getting MiSTer to run on a purely-open toolchain is a long way off however00:13
peepsalotZirconiumX: do you work on any specific mister cores?00:13
ZirconiumXI submitted a patch to Minimig00:13
ZirconiumXBut it got rejected because Sorgelig apparently can't read the Verilog LRM...00:14
peepsalot:(00:15
ZirconiumXUnfortunately even the most easily ported core - Minimig - is basically impractical to compile at present, because while the Amiga chipset is implemented in Verilog, the 68000 cores are all VHDL00:15
ZirconiumXAnd Yosys has no native VHDL support00:16
ZirconiumXThere is an ongoing effort to use GHDL as a front-end module for VHDL, but that's beta-quality at best00:16
ZirconiumXAnd requires an Ada toolchain that most people won't have by default00:17
peepsaloti want to try to implement some vector display arcade stuff like battlezone etc.00:17
ZirconiumXpeepsalot: with all of that said, I would greatly appreciate whatever help you think you can offer.00:18
peepsalotmy dream goal is to interface with laser projector so I can put it on my ~200" display...a white wall in my house ;)00:19
ZirconiumXThat sounds wonderful00:20
peepsalotits a little disappointing that the lead dev seems so hard to work with00:23
ZirconiumXYeah...00:23
peepsalotbut yeah as I said, i'm only absolute beginner to FPGA, so probably not much help to you.  still trying to grasp the very basics of HDL etc.  i've been a software programmer for many years though00:32
* N2TOH just got his Spartan 6 board the other day 00:32
ZirconiumXpeepsalot: much of what I'm working on is the software side of it all00:32
ZirconiumXN2TOH: thank mwk for adding xc6s support to Yosys (using ISE as a backend)00:33
N2TOH*nods*00:34
N2TOHmy JTAG adapter is sill in China so I need something00:34
N2TOHmy end use should be simple enough00:36
N2TOHgonna use it as a memory manager for a 65C81600:36
N2TOHI went with this FPGA cause it has enough IO00:36
N2TOHnever mind it has enough logic to IMPLEMENT the CPU I'm interfacing too!00:37

* N2TOH reads how to wire up an FTDI chip to this FPGA board 02:26
peepsalotcan place and route be accelerated by solving ON an FPGA?02:36
OK_b00m3rthere are some papers on that iirc02:39
N2TOHwhere is a list of known good JTAG interfaces?02:40

N2TOHshould getting Xilinx ISE be a tremendous pain to get running?05:03

tpbTitle: Imgur: The magic of the Internet (at imgur.com)05:07
peepsalotwell, i don't know specifically about xilinx, but I'm pretty sure there's its been mandated that all embedded tools be as cumbersome as imaginable05:16
N2TOHI installed it and had it running, now I can't recall how to start it05:17
