Design flow question

Newb here. I’m wondering what you are using for a design flow to
produce
fpga code? I assume you are obtaining verilog? What tools are used to
produce the verilog and work with it?

All Verilog source is written by hand - no HDL generators are being
used.

The USRP uses an Altera Cyclone part and Quartus II for synthesis.

The upcoming USRP2 will have a Xilinx Spartan 3E (I believe) part and
will use WebPack/XST for synthesis.

I just grabbed webpack and I’m trying it out.

One thing you might like to know:
In my initial testing, it’s working on Fedora F8 x86_64. It doesn’t want
you to run on x86_64, but with a few minor hacks it’s working so far.

Documenting said hacks on the Wiki would be wonderful!
