Hi Andy,

I think you are wedged between kernel versions, driver versions and tool
versions.  See below:

Isn't RHEL3 a 2.4 kernel distro?  RHEL 4 uses 2.6.

There have been recent reports of success installing Xilinx parallel
drivers under 2.6 kernels, search the comp.arch.fpga archives for starters.

Things were a bit shakey driver-wise in the EDK/ISE6.3 series, got
stable eventually in 7.1 with 2.4 kernel, buty hacks were still required
for 2.6

As of 8.1, I believe 2.6 kernel should be ok out of the box, but I
haven't actually checked.

Regards,

John
