Hi Kaj, For RFSoC as long as you are using Vivado <= 2020.2 you can still use System Generator with entry started using `./startsg`. Model Composer is replacing (really just wrapping) System Generator in future releases of Vivado/Vitis >= 2021.
When setting up the RFSoC in the tools I know I tested it on Ubuntu 20.04, but I will admit I believe I may have gotten lucky by already having an Ubuntu environment I forced into working. It probably should have been tested from a fresh install with more information about what to do to start successfully. Because your issue does seem familiar to me. I remember getting something very similar doing things with System Generator on an Ubuntu 20.04 machine before working on RFSoC. What I recall is that Vivado brings along with it in the installation a version `libgmp` that conflicts with what is distributed with base Ubuntu. I would be curious to know what is returned if you run (from within your Matlab prompt) `>> ! ldd /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgnutls.so.30` My suspicion is that you will get something returned where `libgnutls` is wanting to call something from `libgmp` that is being used from the Vivado installation that is the incorrect version, and subsequently fails out. If this is the case then the way to go about fixing this is to move the offending libraries off the path, find the dependencies to replace them, and then install those. Obviously this comes at a risk of messing something up with your system, but if you are comfortable doing this sort of thing, you should be able to overcome it. If I recall correctly, the missing dependencies are a set of the qt4 libraries, but Ubuntu 20.04 only qt5. I may try to duplicate your problem to post the correct steps for RFSoC setup but if you would like to continue this let me know and we could work it out together.
