This register can be read and write as a word or two individual bytes ...". So I'm wondering about a few boards will be broken. Nevertheless, let's leave it at 16bit access. The NIOS board is running in both cases, so there is no really important reason to change this bit. > > As far as testing goes, if it works on my board I'm usually happy.

It wasn't my intention to make broken code. So, here my second try. In attachment yo will find the patch again without this critical change. > > From a group submission aspect, Wolfgang does a good job of filtering and > moderating, and likely applies similar logic for submission.
