XILINX JTAG tools on Linux without proprietary kernel modules
+ News (2008-03-26): Xilinx has released their own drivers based on libusb with ISE Design Suite 10.1.
+ To use them, you need to set the environment-variable XIL_IMPACT_USE_LIBUSB to 1
+ before running the tools. The driver on this page no longer needs to be preloaded if you only used
+ it to access USB cables. Parallel port support still seems to rely on windrvr, which can be
+ emulated by libusb-driver.
