Hello World prints nothing to console

jmales
jmales over 10 years ago

I've been doing some tutorials and I followed all the steps of the Hello World one.

The Zedboard is recognized and is correctly functioning( since I already ran and checked a tutorial which lit up led LD09) but the prints are not being printing to SDK console, even after I connect STDIO to console in SDK.

My OS is Kubuntu 14.04 64 bits.

Note: I've tried the following in the OS I mentioned and in another (running Linux Mint 32 bit): connecting the UART to USB and auto booting like pages 36-39 here (http://zedboard.org/sites/default/files/GS-AES-Z7EV-7Z020-G-14.1-V5.pdf) doesn't work. It recognizes the board and sometimes starts the auto boot but never finishes it. I'm sure the jumpers are all set correctly Maybe this has something to do with the print problem.

Also, somewhere in the tutorial it's said:
"Note: You should use an external terminal emulator program (PuTTY or Tera Term)
in place of the SDK Terminal utility due to a compatibility issue between the
ZedBoard and the SDK terminal. Please make sure that the terminal emulator
program uses the recommended connection settings from Figure 2-13."

How can I add an external terminal (I have minicom in linux) in SDK? It is not explained anywhere.

    You might want to take a look at Sven Andersson's Blog. He has been using the Vivado tools and the ZedBoard under Ubuntu and has detailed the steps to take to make it work in that environment: http://svenand.blogdrive.com/archive/160.html#.VPSJdPnF840

     

    There was another forum poster that was able to work using Kubuntu following Sven's directions: http://zedboard.org/content/running-vivado-20141-kubuntu-1404

    Thank you for the answer.

    Unfortunately, following Sven's tutorial doesn't work for me as I have different results during the Lab 13 where command "djtgcfg enum" in terminal gives me 0 devices...

    I finally managed to get it working.

    I had to install again the diligent packages because I think that I probably didn't install them the first time in the default folders.
