Have a Nexys2 board, attached to some hardware ADC which is spitting 16bit wide data in serial at 5MHz. I figured it would be trivial to put such data on a computer using such a powerful ASIC, but weeks of research and a **broken link removed** later, I'm flustered.

Can anyone share wisdom on how to do this properly? Manuals? Docs? Anything!

Quick cut & paste from some notes. Too lazy to sort it out, but might get you started faster then your current state of affairs. :p

The code as is (or as was years ago :p) worked in one go. Since then I cobbled on some extra stuff for faster transfers, but that is also years ago. :p Anyways, you can use the sensicomm hdl for the fpga and then the libusb based c code on the PC. I vaguely recall the sensicomm stuff being VHDL and having done a rewrite in verilog, but I digress. Links etc below:

apt-get install fxload libusb-dev sdcc-nf sdcc-ucsim-nf

Hope it's of some use.
