FPGA tools on Windows
Vivado 2016.4 is situated on /uio/kant/ifi-project06/robin/programs/vivado it can be accessed from any Windows machine, but it does need to have the LM_LICENSE_FILE environment variable set to 5370@lisens.ifi.uio.no
Vivado, ISE and Questa is currently installed locally on LISP (2428) and Questa is installed on SED (1454) and CHILL (3443). Please notify the engineer in ROBIN if there are issues.
BUG
Due to technical issues, you will receive the following error when creating a new project in Questa on M:/:
# Project file M:/inf3430/my_first_project.mpf is not readable. # Unable to open project.
We are sorry to inform that there are no current solutions to this problem. However, we are working on a solution. You may use;
C:\users\<username>
for storing project files, but be ware that there is no backup and you need to move your files to M:\ before leaving the client.
You can also use X-Win32 to get Linux with GUI on IFIs Windows clients: https://termvakt.uio.no/Fjerninnlogging#Xterm_via_X-Win32 We are working on a solution to fix this issue. In the mean time you may use IFI-Linux.xw32 on the Windows machines.
