When I called the Lattice technical support people, they offered the following fix: put all your 'chip' declarations in one module, with no non-chip declarations. from your other modules, declare the references as 'extern chip ...' then link everything normally. i'm not sure it will fix your problems, but it fixed mine. (i was getting "not an object module" errors when trying to run things...) hope this helps... -michael j zehr
