Re: [casper] Roach questions

Hi Mandana.

I can answer a couple of your questions.

 1) How do I estimate the FPGA clock frequency from the sys_clkcounter value?

Simply take two readings, calculate the difference between last and
first (taking care of 32-bit overflows) and divide by the time taken.

 3) I have two iADC board and I feed the clock using a splitter. The FPGA
 clock is naturally driven from iADC0. Do I need to worry about phase
 mismatch or delay between iADC1 clock and FPGA clock? Any advice?

You don't have to worry about the phase difference. All ADC inputs go
through an asynchronous FIFO with the associated clock on the input
and the application clock on the output.

Regards,
David

[casper] help: Centos-Python: No module named _curses

2011-05-18 Thread Miguel
Hi all,
I have followed the steps in https://casper.berkeley.edu/wiki/Corr to
get the apropiated enviroment. I thought I was ready to run tut2.py
over my PC but I get the following error:

File tut2.py, line 8, in module
  import corr, time, struct, sys, logging, socket
  File build/bdist.linux-x86_64/egg/corr/__init__.py, line 11,
in
module
  File build/bdist.linux-x86_64/egg/corr/scroll.py, line 10,
in
module
  File /usr/local/lib/python2.7/curses/__init__.py, line 15,
in
module
from _curses import *
ImportError: No module named _curses


I can't find the way to fix it because I am using Centos and this error
ussually happens when you run Window, doesn't it? 
Any idea please?

Not sure what caused that, but I upgraded Mediawiki and it seems to be
working now.  Let me know if there's anything else.

 When i log in on the wiki, pages that do not start with /wiki/Special:
 are blank. If i log out again, they're fine.
