<P><B>News</B> (<I>2008-03-26</I>): 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 <kbd>XIL_IMPACT_USE_LIBUSB</kbd> to <kbd>1</kbd>
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 <i>windrvr</i>, which can be
emulated by <i>libusb-driver</i>.
