Altera provided USB Balster has no driver for Unix/HP-UX The current USB Blaster provided by ALTERA uses FTDI Chip (FT245BM) to have USB Interface. It uses the USB driver provided by FTDI to perform the Kit programming. That means if you want to use the USB Blaster to program a Kit using a system with UNIX Solaris platform, you need to have FTDI (FT245BM) driver for this platform (UNIX).



I looked at the FTDI site

formatting link
there I didn't find the FT245BM driver for UNIX.



Any ideas on how to get the driver for UNIX? Can any one help me in getting a link to free driver for this cable or chip supporting the UNIX.

Antti, As you guys are really on this group/ community everyday and mutually helping each others, I was over expecting /hoping to get the suggestion fast . I really Sorry, If I had annoyed you much.

We where to looking for Unix free drivers easy and fast , or such things are available. As our complete college network is of Unix and we have no Windows /Linux systems at all.

Hope you get back to me with the solution on this.
