I have bought the Nexys A7 100T board a few months ago because I wanted to use the MEGA65 bitstream.
Yesterday I thought of "playing" something with the board apart from the MEGA65. I searched through the net and find some articles about the board.
Sadly I fail in a very first step to play with the board. As described in a README, I should connect the board with a serial terminal on the PC:
ZitatAttach the USB cable to your desktop computer, so that you can setup a serial (terminal) connection between the desktop and the FPGA.
Open a serial terminal program, configure it as 115.200 baud, 8-N-1, CTS ON, attach the FPGA, turn it on, after the bitstream loaded from the SD card, connect the terminal program to the serial interface of the FPGA and press the reset button.
I read these texts from Digilent:
https://reference.digilentinc.…logic/tutorials/tera-term
https://reference.digilentinc.…als/tera-term/using/linux
and installed "Putty" an my "Linux Lite 4.8" (a Ubuntu variant) PC.
But I still don't know how I have to set putty to get connected with the Nexys board.
The "lsusb" command shows me this:

I'm a very newbie on this FPGA stuff.
Does anyone have an idea what I overlook?
