LabVIEW 8.0.1 Update for Linux

Hello,
I just downloaded the update for LabVIEW for Linux an tried to install like it is described.
The following output occurs:
Installing...

Would you like to install NI Example Finder (LabVIEW 8.0.1)? [Ynq]
/bin/sh: /soft/natinst/lv801-update/bin/INSTALL.norpm: No such file or directory
/bin/sh: /soft/natinst/lv801-update/bin/INSTALL.norpm: No such file or directory
LabVIEW package installation complete.
Launching LabVIEW Mass Compile utility.
When I start LabVIEW after the obviously successfull Mass Compile I still see LabVIEW Version 8 (in contrast to Windows where I get 8.0.1).
Is it possible that the file bin/INSTALL.norpm is missing in the tar archive or that something else is broken? I am running Debian GNU/Linux Sarge.
Thanks in advance,
Armin Herzer

hello armin herzer,
did you download the LabVIEW 8.0.1 update and the "lv801-linux-norpm.tar.gz"?
if not, you can get it here lv801-linux-norpm.tar.gz.

SCEP 2012 Definition Updates for Linux machines thru SCCM

We have a situation where SCEP definition needs to be updated on Linux machines which don't have access to internet.
All I have read is that SCEP functions as stand alone for Linux & Mac machines. Can someone guide thru how do SCEP definitions get updated on Linux machines that are not connected to internet.

When will firefox be updated for linux ubuntu ?

Compared to Firefox on other OS's this one just don't cut it for me.. it needs to be more compatable to ubuntu.. and an upgrade for flashplayer and java..This version isnot good at all..

Adobe is the one that makes and provides the Flash player plugin for Linux and they currently only support 11.2 esr with security updates.
Firefox does not come with any Plugins with the exception of the OpenH264 video codec provided by Cisco more recently.
Mozilla does not make any packages or updates for Ubuntu version of Firefox as Ubuntu does that. Also Ubuntu is only one of the huge list of Linux distros out there as Mozilla cannot just make it work best for only one in particular.
Mozilla does provide tarballs for 32-bit and 64-bit Linux at www.mozilla.org/firefox/all

Adobe flash player - no more updates for linux

Hey,
I dont know if Im in the right place, but a week ago I discovered that Adobe is not going to provide new version of flash player.
I have the most recent one, Flash Player 11.2 for Linux, but some of my internet apps require 11.5 or higher. Im not a geek and Im still quite a newbie, but I was searching in several forums and all over google and I didnt find any other alternative.
Is there any chance to run these apps on Linux? I know I can switch to Windows but its a really stupid thing. Since Im on Linux I run Windows only for gaming or using Photoshop.
Thanks for any idea

Didnt know its that easy, thanks

New update for Linux??? Really??? Piece of crap...

Way to go Microsoft!!!
You did an amazing job at completely destroying Skype for us Linux users.....
I will explain...
I DON'T want to use pulseaudio, pulseaudio is known to be the worst sound module in Linux (you are hearing this from someone who works with pro-audio in Linux), ALSA has always been the most stable and most supported sound module in Linux.
Why? Just WHY? Did you stop supporting ALSA? Skype was working perfectly well with it! And Why?
This is probably the best question.....
Why did you make it impossible now for us users to use an older version of Skype? We are forced to use the latest 4.3 version, I tried reverting with no luck at all, for the first time in my computing life this is the first time I have ever seen something like this.
Do you really think I'm going to switch over to Windows just to use Skype? Do you think I'm really that stupid? It really is insulting. A program owned by a multibillion enterprise (which strangely now has advertising in it and the original one never did), there are other options for us, such as google hangouts, just another piece of software that I have happily removed from my computer, it was a great communication program before you bought it, lasted a few years, but today has been the day that I say "Goodbye Skype"....
Who's your next target?
Android?
Haha.....
Good luck Microsoft, I stopped using your operating systems 10 years ago, not one day goes by that I miss them, I can easily do the same with Skype.

The problem isn't about supporting ALSA.
I am afraid it is about supporting ALSA.
Sokel wrote:
It's the fact that pulseaudio controls the entire audio stack in most modern distros. That's not Skype's fault. Controlling ALSA outside of the pulseaudio stack can cause quite a few issues, since it's the front end.
In a system with Pulseaudio, ALSA is redirected to Pulseaudio by means of a PCM plugin. So there is no such thing as controlling ALSA outside of the pulseaudio stack, unless it is done deliberately.
In fact.... because of this there is no need to support Pulseaudio at all.... just support ALSA only and people who want to use Pulseaudio (whoever that may be), will have working sound.
ALSA is the universal Linux sound API and has no flaws in this area.

LABVIEW FOR LINUX

Hello,
Presently i am a user of labVIEW 7.1 and 8.2.1 windows version.
and also working on following hardware.
SCXI-1001 12 chassis,
SCXI-1125,SCXI-1124,SCXI-1160,SCXI-1162,PXI-1001,PXI-6251,PXI-6602,USB
1600,USB 6602,PXI-1044,PXI-6133,PXI-8187,PXI-9257.
since i am facing the problem of virus and sudden restarting of system,I am planning to switch over to linux version of linux.
what is ur comment on my deceision?
which version of linux OS will support all above mentioned products.
what are the other advantages i can get from LINUX version?.
Wil i get full programming help as available in windows?
Can we easily learn the programming by reding the help?

Hello chandhuu,
Most of your hardware will be supported except for the USB devices. The readme file for DAQmx 8.0 for Linux lists which devices are supported and by which Linux OS.
The LabVIEW 8.5 readme file for Linux would also be helpful, along with this KnowledgeBase article, which lists which Linux OS versions support National Instruments software and drivers. You will find that programming in LabVIEW for Linux is basically the same as in Windows, so you shouldn't have any trouble switching over if you are familiar with Linux and with LabVIEW. Personally, I am not too familiar with Linux so I feel much more comfortable with LabVIEW for Windows. What about just having a dedicated Windows PC that you can take off the network and use with LabVIEW so that you don't have to worry about viruses?

8.0.1 Patch for Linux has no installer?

So I've downloaded the 8.0.1 update for Linux and Windows.
The windows version is an installer but the linux version is just a
zip file with no instructions?? I've been running CF on both
Windows and Linux for six years and the Linux updaters were always
executable .bin files. I've got no idea what to do with this zip
file. It has no readme, and no identifiable directory structure.
Anyone know how I can apply this to my production linux
server? Thanks for any help.
Adobe, how about a readme or some kind of instruction for
these patches if they aren't installers?

Thanks to Jochem to answering this in another post. The .zip
file is
actually an executable linux installer. Go figure. Thanks for
confusing the heck out of me and wasting my afternoon Adobe.
Why didn't
you just name it .bin like you have in all the years past?!
Sheesh!

Font Smoothing in LabView for Linux

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone has been able to get their fonts in LabView for Linux to be either smoothed using Gnomes subpixel smoother for LCDs, or any other type of anti-aliasing. I currently can use truetype fonts in LabView, and for the most part they do look pretty decent.. btu they are not smoothed at all. Every single application I have loaded has smooth fonts other than LabView. Please let me know if anyone has managed to get this working... and if so, how.
I am currently using Gentoo with all of my packages updated less than a month ago, with LabView 8.2
Thanks for any info!

Unfortunately, we do not support fonts on your operating system. Hopefully another customer is more familiar with this.

Labview for Linux. Datasocket problem

Hello everybody,
I have a problem using datasocket connections in Labview for Linux. The problem is the starting of the connection, it's too slow. It takes around 3 or 4 seconds each connection. We are working with a lot of connections (one per Tag in a DSC code). If we test the same vi in Windows, it takes one or two seconds to open 30 connections.
What can we do?
Thanks!!

Hello again apmonte,
I attempted to recreate this behavior on a Linux machine here running a Kernel
2.6 build, but could not replicate the issue (even when I gave a file/directory
777 permissions). This could, however, be related to some issues with the
way Linux updated its file searching and directory listing functions with
Kernel 2.6. I believe that the LabVIEW 7.1.1 maintenance release/patch
fixed some of these issues. You might want to install that patch, and mass
compile the LabVIEW directory (the LabVIEW mass compile command from the
"Tools->Advanced" menu). You can find links to the patch and
a little information on it here:
http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/websearch/AAB2D84EF29F90DA86256F4D00776E5A?OpenDocument.
Please let me know if this does not resolve this issue.

How to create a c++ shared library (.so) for linux real time (for myRio) with Eclipse to use in LabView?

I tried already these Tutorials and Advices but I didn't find a solution:

- http://www.ni.com/tutorial/14690/en/
- http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Shared-Library-on-myrio-Linux-Real-time-system/m-p/2842540/

- and some more
I want use c++ codes on linux real time. For testing reasons I want to have a function that adds 2 values and gives the result.
I've done these steps:
1. writing a c++ file in Eclipse (see screensot 2)
2. building a shared library (.so) from my c++ project in Eclipse (with Cross GCC)
3. putting this file on myRio (path: /usr/local/lib/)
4. creating a VI that calls this library from Labview with a "Call Library Function Node" (see screenshot3)
5. Setting the properties for the "Call Library Function Node" (see screenshots 4-7)
After I run this VI i get this error message: LabVIEW: (Hex 0x627) The function name for the ... node cannot be found in the library. To correct this error, right-click the Call Library Function Node and select Configure from the shortcut menu. Then choose the correct function name. (see screenshot1)
I've tried a lot things to solve this problem but I couldn't find a solution. Would be very happy if anyone can help me. I guess that I have to edit my c++ code to export my function (symbol). But I have no idea how to make it. I also tried it with a dll file in the same folder but it didn't help.
Perhaps someone can send an example which works on myRIO.
Thanks!

screenshot3
screenshot4
screenshot5
screenshot6
screenshot7

can see it in the screenshot8 there is a function called "_Z8AddierenddPd" instead of "Addieren". I copied this name to Labview (see screenshot9) and it worked.
I'm sure that there is a way to compile the shared folder with gcc without decorations (mangling). But I don't know how. If someone has a recommendation I would be very glad!
Prepend each function declaration that you want to be available without name decoration with
extern "C" <your function declaration>
Or if you have multiple functions you want to export you can in the header file where you declare your functions simply use:
#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif
<all your function declarations>
#ifdef __cplusplus
#endif

LabView for Linux/Mac: integrate external UI controls

Hello,
for Windows, there's the posibillity to integrate (UI-)controls written in annother language using ActiveX or .NET. Is there an equivalent solution for Linux and Mac?
I.e., can I use a GTK or Carbon/Cocoa based control in LabView on Linux or Mac? I know I can utilize external libraries, but this will not allow me to display any UI elements alongside LabView controls on the same Panel without putting considerable effort in subclassing the window, which is also not so easy on Mac.
Thanks in Advance
Alexander Hofmann

Hi Alexander,
there is no such functionality that allows you to integrate external UI controls under Linux or Mac.
However you can call Frameworks or Shared Libraries under Linux and Mac in order to communicate with external applications.
Alternatively you can go the other way round and create Shared Libraries of your LabVIEW application, that can be called within external applications.
Below you can find some helpful links reagrding this topic:

Labview player for linux?

I have a Labview VI running on my Windows platform. I developed it using the Windows version of Labview 7.1. I used the Web Publishing tool to make the display available online. I have verified that I can see the display running in real time using IE on a Windows machine.
Other machines in our LAN are running Linux, and cannot view the site in real time. For example, Mozilla asks for a plugin, but I can not find Labview Player for Linux anywhere. Can anyone help me get the Linux machines to see the real time site that is being hosted from a Windows machine?
Thanks

I don't think that there is a plug-in for a linux system to be able to view the published LabVIEW front panel.
Wait! Try looking at this link:

Labview 7 for Linux on Redhat9,NI example Finder not working.

I have Labview7 for Linux on Redhat9, installed at /usr/local/lv71. "NI example Finder" is not working, the function of browser, search,submit,none is working. When I try to close it, the window looks dead, cannot close it. I will force to close it. What is the problem? Where are the examples?
Another question: the simple help text is working, but the details help is not working. I can open the help file by Mozilla. But I want the help could be linked, like what it is in Windows platform.
Thanks

Hello �
If whenever you type �labview� at the prompt, LabVIEW 7.1 is launched, it probably means that the paths are setup to launch 7.1 but it doesn�t necessarily mean that you do not have LabVIEW 7.0 installed.
If you only installed LabVIEW 7.1 in that computer, it is possible that somebody else had installed LabVIEW 7.0 before.
What I suggest doing is to run the UNINSTALL scripts for both, LabVIEW 7.0 and 7.1, and reinstall LabVIEW 7.1 as root, not as user.
Hope that helps!

In LabVIEW for Linux, cannot link to a shared library file (.so).

Hello all,
I'm having trouble using the Call Library Function Node within LabVIEW for Linux (using Ubuntu). I can configure my Node correctly, and it sees the available function within it with all the proper parameters, but when I close the Call Library Function dialog box it does a quick search and asks me to Find the Shared Library Named "mySharedLibraryName." If I select it again, it merely repeats this over and over until I cancel. Has anyone seen this before or know what is causing this? The .so file was compiled using gcc++ - is there anything specific that should have been included (does it need a header file)? Could some missing file be causing this?
Thanks,
Jason

The elf shared library format is a supported feature of all Linux distributions since about Linux 1.0 or earlier. So it is not really an issue that Ubuntu wouldn't support shared libraries as used by the LabVIEW Call Library Node. Since the Call Library Node seems to be able to see the exported functions during selection of the function it also doesn't seem to be a problem with proper export of the symbols.
This leaves over some dependencies of the shared library on some other shared libraries including C runtime libraries. Was the shared library compiled on the system you try to use it? If not you may have an incompatibility of the C runtime library version used on the system that was used to compile the shared library and your Ubuntu system you try to load it.
