Just thought I'd let everyone whos been waiting for it know right away: EDK 8.1 was released on Xilinx Subscribernet last night!!



I know i have been counting days!



Downloading it right now. Hope the mb-uclinux BSPs work out fine on this release.

Where? I am unable to find it!

I think it's here:

But my Xilinx account doesn't work there, even though I'm a registered, in-warranty EDK customer. I'm not sure how one gets access to it.

I believe you should recieve an email from xilinx giving you the location. Email your xilinx contact if your subscribtion is not current.

I got EDK7.1i+ISEBaseX7.1i with the "PowerPC and MicroBlaze Developpment kit". I moved to ISE WebPack8.1i but I don't know if I will get a free update from EDK7.1i to EDK8.1i. I registred my EDK 2 mounths ago on the Xilinx's site.

The licencse you buy from Xilinx cover a full year, so you will get your update fro free!

Same case. I have a subscribenet account, I have EDK registered and in-warranty, but I can only download ISE7.1 BaseX. I hope Xilinx people correct these pòrblems soon!

Is is even worse than thta. Now I see I have no registered products in my Xilinx account. Not only they have discontinued ISE BaseX (before warrant termination, and nothing in return) but they have also erased my EDK registration. I will be forced to file a complaint. Or worse.

The most recent version of the uclinux auto-config BSP, 1.00.d, should work just fine with 8.1.

Available from here:
