Hi, I've been working on the same branch using Ubuntu 20.04, and I highly recommend using the virtualized image provided by Andrew Martens. Before trying this, make sure you have all the licenses for Matlab and Vivado (Vivado requieres multiple licenses). Check if startsg.local is properly configurated and package dependencies met from requirements.txt.
For additional context: https://groups.google.com/a/lists.berkeley.edu/g/casper/c/RMlQ8iwKEIE/m/rThzB3njAQAJ?utm_medium=email&utm_source=footer You can download the virtualized image here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FfsZddV5_tRMd3ZBibDvolPTPPSjBfRk/view?usp=sharing A few tips: Some blocks migth give you problems. For instance, creating an FFT from scratch may not work, but FFTs from example files function correctly. The RFDC block from downloaded example designs may cause an error when opening. Restarting the program and replacing it with a new instance resolves the issue for me. Vivado runs in the background, and depending on the complexity of your design, it may require more RAM than initially expected. Changing the file name to the .slx has been known to cause issues. Hope this helps, Emiliano. ________________________________ From: casper@lists.berkeley.edu <casper@lists.berkeley.edu> on behalf of Walter Klahold <wklah...@nrao.edu> Sent: Friday, March 21, 2025 1:29:47 PM To: casper@lists.berkeley.edu <casper@lists.berkeley.edu> Subject: [casper] Casper development for RFSoC 4x2 on RHEL8 Hi all, I’m working on building the toolchain for using the Casper libraries on an RFSoC 4x2 board and am following the instructions given here: https://casper-toolflow.readthedocs.io/projects/tutorials/en/latest/tutorials/rfsoc/tut_getting_started.html However, currently my startsg launch script terminates when attempting to launch Model Composer, and I receive the following error message: “ERROR: Currently Vitis Model Composer is not supported on RHEL8 and beyond versions” The message makes sense given that my operating system is RHEL8.10, but in the instructions page given above it mentions that the toolchain was tested on RHEL8.4. Has anyone gotten the toolchain to work on RHEL8, and are there special setup instructions for doing so?
