Nexys 2 Bits

Annoyances

  • You can't use Xilinx's Impact software to either send a bit file to the FPGA or program the onboard platform rom.
  • Can't use in-system debugging stuff like Chipscope.
  • There is an USB enabled 8051 clone on the board, Cyrus FX2 from memory, this has a connections to the FPGA which would make it fairly useful for projects, sending debug info over USB etc, Digilent don't seem to have any docs on how to use it.. They have a DLL for their Adept stuff, but that's a bit useless.
  • Documentation for VGA generation is WRONG

Nexys 2 and VirtualBox

Use these settings to get Adept to talk to the Nexys2 via VirtualBox. USB2 doesn't work.
