WebPack_7.1 on Linux ?

Hi all,

Xilinx claimed that their WebPack_ISE run under RHEL. Is anybody
successfully install it on common Linux distro ?

Many thanks, Habib

Yes, I have it running on both a recent SuSE and on Debian GNU/Linux
unstable.  I mostly use the command line, but the graphical stuff
seems to work as well.

There are some tricks to install it correctly; search this newsgroup
for them.

IIRC, you have to set DISPLAY=":0" (and not ":0.0") because of some
braindeadness somewhere in WindU.  Also, you might need to install
libXm.so.3, maybe from Lesstif.

Also, if your box has a IPv6 address configured for localhost, coregen
might have problems talking to the ISE shell, since ISE listens on the
IPv4 address but coregen tries to connect to the IPv6 address, or
something.  I charge this braindeadness to the IPv6 design.
