Hello,
I've managed to get access to a Spartan6 150 FPGA board and Xilinx toolset at work at lunch/evenings to play with. The idea is to learn VHDL, which is going OK. I'd really like to have a play with Bitcoin too.
I hope there is someone here that can help me with regards to TheSeven's Xilinx VHDL implementation. If not, do you know where can I get help?
I'm afraid getting miners running on Spartan-6 is kind of hairy and really requires HDL tailored specifically to that chip. TheSeven's Xilinx VHDL implementation isn't going to be, and ztex's Spartan-6 mining core which everyone uses is in Verilog rather than VHDL.
