I've downloaded and successfully installed Xilinx ISE Web Pack 14.4 on Ubuntu 12.10 although I'm unable to launch it.

Well: it's UNIX, so there are multiple ways to do it.

One of them is this

  1. Some preparations (needed only once)

    $ cd .../14.4/ISE_DS
$ chmod u+x *.csh *.sh

  2. Execute the correct settings script you can find in the root of the installation

    $ /path_to_the_installation_dir/14.4/ISE_DS/settings64.sh

    For a none cshell system with 64 bits.

  3. Run a Xilinx tool

    $ /path_to_the_installation_dir/14.4/ISE_DS/ISE/bin/lin64/ise
$ /path_to_the_installation_dir/14.4/ISE_DS/ISE/bin/lin64/coregen
$ /path_to_the_installation_dir/14.4/ISE_DS/EDK/bin/lin64/xps
$ /path_to_the_installation_dir/14.4/ISE_DS/EDK/bin/lin64/xsdk

If you want a better system I advise you to take a look at the TCL version of the Modules tool.

How to setup your Unix environment to point to the correct licenses can be found in installation document of Xilinx.

  • Wow, that worked like a charm. Thanks a lot. :) By the way, I'm stuck with Xilinx since my university uses that. But thanks anyway for your suggestion as well. – Can Mar 01 '13 at 09:24
  • I guess you where talking about the Modules tools I was advocating. Module is not a replacement of the Xilinx tool. It's a nice and open tool to setup your environment for different kind of tools/version/projects. – vermaete Mar 01 '13 at 15:23
