<drberko_>
hi im a new user currently trying to figure out this FPGA thing. I was wondering how to install gp4par? I don't see any commands to install it on linux (Debian) so I am kinda lost. Thanks for your time

New to this type of stuff and was wondering how I am supposed to install this package as I don't see any exe files in the folder in the Github repository. Any help is much appreciated!
<tnt>
bwang333: install ... what ?

<azonenberg>
bwang333: gp4par?
<azonenberg>
You'll need to build from source
<azonenberg>
There is no official binary distribution
<azonenberg>
It's only been tested on linux to my knowledge but i see no reason it wouldn't build on windows, worst case you can compile it under WSL
<bwang333>
yes gp4apr
<azonenberg>
Should be able to do a standard CMake compile
<bwang333>
i'm sorry bare with me here what do you mean by build from the source
<Hoernchen>
uh oh
<azonenberg>
You should probably ask in #cmake or something if you've never had to compile anything yourself, it might take a while to get set up
<azonenberg>
I will warn you in advance though, gp4par is still a bit experimental and if you're not an experienced software developer you might find it a little tricky to get started
<azonenberg>
You'll also have to compile Yosys yourself probably, since gp4par is only the place-and-route and doesn't include a synthesis tool\

having fun tweaking the video text output driver to handle more char/line, plus adding a much-needed backspace functionality.
<Xark>
Yes, no backspace was lame on OSI (and no excuse like Apple I). :)

emeb: Looks really sweet. I am pencilling in implementing your project on an IceBreaker ULP5K board to play with... (I already have composite version bookmarked).
<emeb>
Xark: I'll be putting the VGA version up on github shortly.
<Xark>
emeb: Awesome. Fun stuff!
<emeb>
My VGA output ckt has 2 bits/color on the RGB - not sure what conventional PMODs that Icebreaker could use provide tho.
<emeb>
but that's easy to tweak.
<Xark>
Yes, no problem. I think dual PMOD one I have is 3/3/2 (but not positive - I have a few).
<emeb>
Nice. IIRC there's a pretty simple PS/2 PMOD out there which should work with this too.
<Xark>
Yes. I have pretty much all PMODs I have seen available.
