Xilinx System Generator 11.3 (XSG) now runs on Linux. Running on Linux will eliminate issues relating to memory limitations, multi-user environments and most importantly eliminates the need for Windows. This page describes the process of getting MSSGE to work on Linux with ISE 11.3.

Installation Steps

• Install ISE 11.1 (64 bit)
• Install ISE 11.3 Service pack
• Install matlab 2008A, 2008B or 2009A
• Check out latest mlib_devel_10_1 CASPER Libraries

Invoking System Generator

You need three files in the same folder (some example files will need to be edited according to your installation setup):

• a startsg shell script (example: Media:startsg.sh.txt)
• a matlab startup.m script (example: Media:startup.m.txt)
• the sysgen setup script (example: Media:sysgen_startup.m.txt)

Enter this folder and run startsg.

11.3 Setup Tips

• Probably only an issue on new machines, but XPS seems to depend on gmake. If you get errors about gmake, install make and then do something like

ln -s /usr/bin/make /usr/bin/gmake

11.3 Performance Comments
