Thank you for your reply. If I'm understanding correctly, the FGPA SUME board has a PCIe power supply connector, and that power supply from the PCIe slot only is not sufficient to power the board. There are two ways to connect the PCIE power supply: 1. choose to connect it through the motherboard's PCIe power socket or 2. connect it to an external power supply directly, independent from the PC. To pickup the board as a PCIe device (ie, listed using lspci) If I use configuration 1, then I need to program the board using the PC, and make the FPGA auto-configure from FLASH, then restart the PC If I use configuration 2, then I can program the board, and restart the PC without needing to auto-configure. Is my understanding correct? Thanks again Ricky

Hi, We have 2 NetFPGA SUME boards that are failing the tests. We followed instructions to set up the environment, using Vivado 2020.1 on Ubuntu 20.04. We were able to connect to the board through USB using the Vivado hardware server, but it says the debug core is missing. When running `make test`, we repeatedly see `End of startup status: LOW` and skip all but one of the tests. The one test it does run `CPLD` occasionally passes, but often fails. Another separate issue is that it seems our system is unable to detect the FPGA through PCIe. `lspci` command does not have anything related to the board, and there is no difference between two lspci runs, one with the board in the slot (with ld10, power led and ld4, done led both on) and one without the board. We tried to follow some instructions that installed some drivers and it didn’t change anything, but independent from drivers, we believe the device should be picked up by the PCIe slot regardless. Do you have any recommendations for what to try to fix these issues? We are also happy to provide additional information for you Thanks.

Thank you for the support! Cheers, Ricky

Hi @JColvin, Thanks for the reply. We are looking to use 2.19.2 runtime, and whichever version of utilities that correspond to that. I believe it should be 1 or 2 version back? We are avoiding the latest version because we are using ubuntu 14.04 and have some libc6 dependency issues for the newest runtime. PS: The link for sdk is also going to the windows version download Thanks again Ricky

https://digilent.com/reference/software/adept/start The link under Utilities - Latest Downloads for linux links to the previous version of windows. How can I find old version of adpet2 utilities? I am trying to install a runtime that require an older version of utilities. If possible I want to avoid using the latestest version of runtime and utilities.
