-EDIT-  

 

There is a newer version of the Nios II Linux Distribution available. The version (1.3) in this thread is only for backwards compatability with Quartus II v4.2 and Nios II v1.1. 

 

-END EDIT- 

 

The uClinux Distribution has been updated to support the Nios 1.1 IDE. 

 

The uClinux Kernel has been updated from 2.6.5 to 2.6.9. Additions include:

- other minor fixes
