[casper] MSSGE with ISE 14 compatible OS
Hi all, A bit of a picky question: The wiki mentions Ubuntu 12.04 and RHEL 6 as compatible with ISE 14. Does anyone know of any other linuxes that have worked with ISE 14? More specifically, has anyone tried with Ubuntu 13.04 or Fedora 18 or 19? -Alex

Hi Alex, Here at SKA-SA we have found that the most stable Ubuntu setup is with Ubuntu 12.04, Xilinx 14.3 and Matlab 2012b. Ubuntu 13.04 has been tried and we encountered issues with updating designs. Although not much time has been spent trying to resolve these. Please let us know your results.

[casper] Memory mapped kernel module backported to ROACH-1
Dear All I have added support for a memory mapped kernel module for ROACH-1. *Advantages*: Latest kernel support(Linux 3.10) No BORPH Performance benefit * Implications*: Experimental(Let me know feedback to iron out bugs) *Usage*: Use it along with tcpborphserver3. Telnet onto roach and use KATCP commands(progdev, listdev) to talk to FPGA. *Source:* * * https://github.com/ska-sa/roach2_linux There is a working config file incase you struggle to build the kernel image from the source on your own. - make 44x/roach_defconfig - make cuImage.roach -- Shanly Rajan SKA-SA DBE Team 021 506 7362 (O) 072 783 2022 (M)
Re: [casper] MSSGE with ISE 14 compatible OS
i recommend only using operating systems that xilinx supports. we've encountered very strange and very subtle problems when using non xilinx supported operating systems - eg; one problem we found, we didn't get any error messages, but the FFT in our design didn't produce correct results when computing FFT's over 2^12 points. when we switched to a xilinx supported operating system (RHEL), the exact same simulink design worked fine. also, xilinx will not answer any questions if you are using a non-supported operating system. best wishes, dan On Wed, Jul 10, 2013 at 1:49 AM, Alex Zahn wrote: > Hi all, > > A bit of a picky question: > > The wiki mentions Ubuntu 12.04 and RHEL 6 as compatible with ISE 14.
