cristian.ignat Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Hello, I was trying and for me it works. I followed the steps: 1. Download board files from the following link: https://github.com/Digilent/vivado-boards/archive/master.zip 2. Extract the archive and navigate to the folder: C:\Users\...\Downloads\vivado-boards-master\vivado-boards-master\new\board_files 3. Open the Vivado board file folder: C:\Xilinx\Vivado\2015.4\data\boards\board_files 4. Copy from the extracted archive the "zybo" folder into Vivado "board_file" folder. 5. Restart Vivado This should work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thays Falcari Posted March 30, 2016 Share Posted March 30, 2016 Hello, I have the same problem. I am using Ubuntu 14.04 and after this proceeding the zybo board was not added on the list. Is there any other solution or configuration I should do? Thanks, Thays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JColvin Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Hi Thays, I have asked some of our applications engineers about this; they will get back to you here on the forum. Thanks, JColvin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommyK Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Hi guys, I haven't used Vivado on Linux yet, but I think it should still work. Do the other boards show up in the list? Are you making sure to restart Vivado after copying the files over? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thays Falcari Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 Is there any news about this case? I've tried again but no success, unfortunatelly. regards, Thays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommyK Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Hi Thays, I'll install a copy of linux and try to get to the bottom of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommyK Posted April 5, 2016 Share Posted April 5, 2016 Hi Thays, I installed Vivado on linux, then moved the files within vivado-board/new/boardfiles to /opt/Xilinx/Vivado/2015.4/data/boards/board_files This worked. Can you verify that the contents of vivado-boards/new/board_files are in the correct place? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thays Falcari Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Hello, That's strange because the files are there in the folder /opt/see thiXilinx/Vivado/2015.4/data/boards/board_files , but I do not know what is wrong. Maybe Vivado can not see Zybo folder and I do not know why. Thank you! Thays Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TommyK Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 "see thiXilinx" is an invalid folder name. It cannot have any spaces in it. Are the other boards showing up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
