Xilinx ISE 6.2 on Debian

Apr 30, 2004 1 Replies

Has anyone succesfully installed the ISE software on a Debian 3.0 system ? I receive errors like: Wind/U Error (294): Unable to install Wind/U ini file (/cdrom/data/WindU). See the Wind/U manual for more details on the ".WindU" file and the "WINDU" environment variable. Wind/U X-toolkit Error: wuDisplay: Can't open display Any help will be appreciated ! Regards, Gerrit VdV


Wind/U tries to open a display using TCP ports. However Debian disables TCP connections to your Xserver by default. Search for an entry like ":0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X vt7 -dpi 100 -nolisten tcp" in /etc/X11/kdm/Xserver or whereever you start X and remove "-nolisten tcp". After the installation you can disbable tcp connections again.
