Distribution Setup

We support three main Linux distributions (CentOS, Fedora, ubuntu), but you need to maintain some security configuration and packages. Each distribution has its own problems, check the issues before deciding what distribution to install. The distributions should:

• Compile and run SESC and SESCTherm (with CUDA support)

• Run synos rake command

 svn co svn+ssh://mada0.cse.ucsc.edu/mada/server/svn/synos
 cd synos/scoore/fpu
 rake

• Execute vcs

 cd synos/scoore/fpu
 rake test:softfloat_tb

• Execute synplicity_pro

 cd synos/scoore/fpu
 rake fpga:fpu v=1
 ./synplify_fpu.sh

• Execute dc_shell-t

 cd synos/scoore/fpu
 rake asic:fpu v=1
 ./dc_fpu.sh

• Run opencv applications (cd mthd/mgesture)
• Run gosu examples (cd mthd/hdui)

WORKS

sesc,sesctherm, synos, vcs, synplify_pro, dc_shell, opencv

FAILS

gosu (gem rmagic and ruby-opengl package fail to install)
