Can anyone help to read x,y and z possition of the DE0-Nano card?

I found these:

-- Accelerometer and EEPROM
G_SENSOR_CS_N : out STD_LOGIC;
G_SENSOR_INT  : in STD_LOGIC;
I2C_SCLK     : out STD_LOGIC;
I2C_SDAT     : buffer STD_LOGIC

You should get the datasheet of the G-sensor. The type should be 
documented in the handbook of the board. On the datasheet often is 
described, what register have to be set and read to get the G-values.

If you evaluated this, simply write a I2C communication to the chip and 
read the registers. There are a lot of cores on opencores.org, which you 
can use as example.

Hope this helps.
