Hi, i have downloaded WebPack 10.1 for Linux, and have it installed. But, I can't seem to find the isim function. It shows a process for Modelsim, but Modelsim is not provided for Linux hosts. I am specifically wanting to use 10.1, as it supports Coolrunner 2 and Spartan 2E, which I still use. Anybody know what I'm doing wrong? (This is a 32-bit X86 system.) Is isim really missing, do you have to install it separately, or is it just that I can't find the right button to bring it up? Any hints gratefully appreciated. Jon

Just this once: select ISIM as the simulator in the project options. In the drop down list above the project files, select pre- or post-synthesis simulation. Select the simulation top module in the project modules list. Select simulate.

There is no FXT for the Virtex-6 family. Thanks Duth

I've been using Ise 4.2i from the dark ages, and have just moved up to a more modern version. I couldn't find anywhere where they mention making that setting in the project options. It SHOULDN'T default to ModelSim, or even allow you to make that setting, as that sim is NOT supported on Linux! So thanks very much, I can now do sim! Jon
