Hi all, after many months of working on another board (SKA TPM for LFAA) today I'm back to a project using the ROACH-1 but I figured out that my "longterm" Matlab R2009b license expired, therefore I decided to try to install the "new" toolflow for ROACH2.
Following the instruction on the wiki web page and some hint hidden in the mailing list I didn't get a working system. I have installed: Ubuntu 12.04 Matlab 2012b Xilinx 14.7 dumped mlib_devel repository from git casper-astro additional deprecated pbcores and patched the sh shell finally modified the startsg.local (specially the jasper=ise!) with my paths but Matlab crashed at the very beginning when launched from the system generator (got also a message saying the the XILINX_DSP env doesn't match the XILINX env, resetting...). After many attempts I tried also with more recently ubuntu release, I found a mail from Jack saying that with the 14.04 it works. I got the same behavior. At the end I decided to play with the repository version and with some luck I got a working setup, haven't tested yet to call it "stable". My questions are: 1. which is the right repository hash version of a stable ROACH2 mlib_devel toolflow? For istance the one used during the CASPER workshop training. 2. Can be reported to the wiki page as well? I found that something similar is done for the tutorials of the last workshop. 3. What are the differences (if exists) between the ska-sa and casper-astro libs? 4. I would like to try to porting automatically the simulink design developed by using the Xilinx 11.4 blockset to the 14.7, but I don't remember what is the xilinx script to be used (xlmupdate? xlblablabla, xlabracadabra?!?) :D 5. I'm going to use the ADC-64 input (already used with the ROACH-1 but using a oxford patched lib for the poliphase), any hint? Thanks in advance for the help! Hope to see you at the next CASPER workshop (if I'll find who will pay my ticket :]) Cheers, Andrea -- Andrea Mattana I.N.A.F. - Istituto di Radioastronomia Radiotelescopi di Medicina Via Fiorentina, 3513 - 40059 Medicina (Bo) Tel. 051/6965847 Fax. 051/6965810 -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "[email protected]" group.
