Install Cadence On Ubuntu

/ Comments off
Active2 years, 2 months ago

This tutorial explains the process that the BYU ECE department followed when installing the Cadence software during the summer of 2004. Therefore, if this tutorial is used significantly later than 2004, there may be differences, due to changes in software. The Cadence installation process was completed with Linux using Debian (version#?).

I need a cadence-like application to switch between jack and pulse audio. Can I install cadence on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Not Ubuntu Studio or Dream Studio).

Is it going to work ? I already installed : QJackCTL, Pulsejack module etc.

I have just done precisely that. I have not tested the result exhaustively but yes, so far it seems to work. The only thing I would suggest is, use the KX repositories only for the initial install of Cadence and its dependencies; once installed, disable those repositories. That will ensure that the Ubuntu Studio dependencies don't get shot to pieces by KX versions being out of step.

Yes it is possible to install Cadence and all kxstudio apps from KXStudio repo on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS x86.

For that you need to add these two PPAs:

Open synaptic package manager and mark Cadence, Festige, Jackd(Upgrade), QjackCTL(Upgrade).

Don't select any other application and don't upgrade everything, especially ffmpeg.

Do not add any other PPAs as they tend to create problems, especially the 'kernels and drivers' PPA.

Just install those upper mentioned apps, they will automatically pull down all other required apps from kxstudio repository :)

After installing everything either disable the PPAs or remove them.

I am trying to install 32 bit cadence ic610 in 64 bit ubuntu. Installscape GUI is not popping up and it says java is not found.

It looks like the problem is due to installation of 32 bit cadence in 64 bit OS. I am getting the same error as shown in this link
problem on java: not found. Please help me in solving it.

If installscape does not work showing a java error message, you need to link the java, java_vm y javaws binaries in /etc/alternatives maintaining the same names. You can also update the java references by executing:

sudo update-alternatives --config java sudo update-alternatives --config javac sudo update-alternatives --config javws

Additionally, it is possible that iscape.sh is outdated for your system,

iscape.sh: 219: exec: /home/administrador/cadence_install_files/iscape.04.21-s003/runtime/LNX86/bin/java: not found

If you get the above error, you need to edit iscape.sh and change

.... if [ 'X$java_vm' = 'X' ]; then java_vm=FindJavaInPath; fi;

with

if [ 'X$java_vm' = 'X' ]; then java_vm=FindJavaInPath; fi; java_vm=Path_to_your_java_bin_folder // in this case, /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-openjdk-amd64/bin/java

Install Cadence 6.1 On Ubuntu 12.04

Additionally, you need:

cds_root

sudo cp $CDS_IC/tools/bin/cds_root $CDS_IC/tools/bin/cds_root.32b.back

sudo rm /opt/cadence/IC616/tools/bin/cds_root sudo ln -s /opt/cadence/IC616/tools/bin/64bit/cds_root /opt/cadence/IC616/tools/bin/cds_root

[editar] awk

sudo ln -s /usr/bin/awk /bin/awk
