Questa Sim on IFIs Linux machines

In order to run Questa on Linux, add the following in your ~/.bashrc file:

export LM_LICENSE_FILE=5370@lisens.ifi.uio.no
export PATH=$PATH:/projects/nanus/eda/Mentor/2017_2018/Questa/questasim/bin
export MODELSIM=/uio/kant/ifi-project06/robin/CADlib/modelsimCADLIB.ini

The latter will be sourced on login. You may now run vsim in the terminal to open Questa sim.

Due to technical issues, you will receive the following error when creating a new project in Questa Sim 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, you may use the following workarounds:

    1. Copy files from C:\users\<username> to your M:\ disk before loging out.
    2. Use version-control like git on your project. See github.uio.no.
    3. Set up dropbox on the machine.
  2. Run X-Win64 and use Questa Sim on Linux.

If you have any problems, please notify your teaching assistant or ROBIN engineer
