Hi Griffin,
Thank you so much!!

About the first option 
centos 5.3 / Xilinx ISE 11.4 / Matlab 2009b
Are  Casper Libraries compatibles with? I mean, don’t are they build for Ise 
10.1?


My problems?  Ok let’s go step by step:

1) Each time I open simulink:
Warning: Could not find library ‘testbench_lib’ o speciefied in 
‘C:\codigos\mlib_devel\gavrt_library\slblocks.m’

2) The first time i open a model all the yellow blocks are “bad link” and 
matlab welcomes me with a lot of warnigs like: 
“Warning: "tut1/counter_value" is a parameterized link. To view, discard, or 
propagate the changes for this link,
use the "Link Options" menu item.”
With the tutorial 2 I also get four warnings like, 
“Warning: casper_library_misc.mdl, line 5905: block_diagram does not have a 
parameter named 'BlockName'”.
And others warning about a parameter "SID” (I can remember a discussion about 
SID in the casper list)
Anyway, then I pick up an element from BEE_XPS System Blockset (i can see this 
library in the simulink library browser) , put it in the model and the yellow 
blocks became ok. 

3) When I tried to run ‘bee_xps’ with ‘tut2.mdl’ i get the same warnings plus 
the following error: 
Error using ==> gen_xps_files at 199
Failed to find 'Misc/pulse_ext/posedge' in library 'casper_library' referenced 
by 'tut2/pkt_sim/posedge'.

4) With tutorial3 after “bee_xps” the thing are getting worse... I received 
around fifty errors like (i only copy two of them but i have a .txt file if 
someone is interested in):
“Error using ==> gen_xps_files at 199
--> Error reported by S-function 'sysgen' in 'r_spec_2048_r105/Concat1':

I download the models from Casper web so i assume they will be ok. This is the 
reason why i was wondering if i have the correct setup. I readed 
http://www.xilinx.com/support/answers/17966.htm  and chose, Windows XP 32 bits, 
Matlab R2008a, ISE 10.1.3. Theoretically... it should be valid but........

Hi Miguel,

We are using a windows and linux setup which is:

centos 5.3 / Xilinx ISE 11.4 / Matlab 2009b
windows XP / Xilinx ISE 10.1 / Matlab 2007b

the main git repo is at: git://casper.berkeley.edu/mlib_devel.git

What kind of errors are you getting?

-Griff

  Hi all,
  My name is Miguel. I started to work with Casper enviroment a couple of 
months ago. I’m trying to comunicate severals Roach through a swicth.
  I readed on the web that the best choice was: Windows XP, System Generator 
10.1 and Matlab 2008a (as Xilinxs said, it was compatible) but i started to get 
(a lot of) warnings and errors. 

  I would like to be sure, because I still have a terrible mess with 
Linux/Windows, Matlab, System generator versions supported to work with Casper 
libraries, the respository (isn’t a link to git repository on the web, is it?) 
and i’m driving insane.

  It would be very helpfull  if someone could resume one/two different options:

  1) Which O.S must I install? 
  2) Which System Generator Version must i install?
  3) Which Matlab version must i use?

  I mean, could anyone tell me for example : 
  “RED HAT 5, System Genereator 12.6, Matlab 2011”  or 
  “ubuntu 9.7, System Generator 10.1, Matlab 2009a”

  they both work ok.

  Thanks. 
  Miguel.
