It would be better if you make your problem bit more clear. I am not getting exact idea whether you have hardware code ready for LCD controller or software code which drives LCD using any controller? 

There are ready reference available in setup package of NEEK, you can look at few examples given in package, from where you can start looking at how reference system works and find out what you need to do.

You can use the "Picture Viewer" demo as your design guide.You can simplifly the hardware and nios software, by removing the part of sg-dma-lan, uc/os code, gif decoder and other files.Left the only 4 necessary files:alteraC3.hPicture_Viewer.calt_video_display.calt_video_display.hMakes it show the CycloneIII logo only.Please refer to the link to get the "Picture Viewer" demo code.http://www.altera.com/products/devkits/altera/kit-cyc3-embedded.html?gsa_pos=2&wt.oss_r=1&wt.oss=neek
