HI,
I AM TRYING TO INSTALL THE FX3 SUPPORT SOFTWARE FOR LINUX ON AN I7 BASED LAPTOP RUNNING UBUNTU 16.04. I HAVE RUN INTO A NUMBER OF ISSUES THAT ARE ILLUSTRATED BELOW. I AM LOOKING FOR ANY INFORMATION THAT MAY HELP ME BUILD AND INSTALL THE EXECUTABLES. I BELIEVE I HAVE SET UP ALL THE PATHS CORRECTLY, DOWNLOADED THE FILES TO SUPPORT THE 64BIT VERSION, DOWNLOADED QT4, ETC.
ANY ASSISTANCE WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. I HAVE USED AND DEVELOPED WITH THE WINDOWS BASED SOFTWARE (STREAMER) FOR FX3 WITHOUT ISSUE IN THE PAST.
THANKS,
BILL
I have attached a PDF with the full discussion and images from the compile attempts.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi William,
Can you please try to open the Makefile under cyusb_linux_1.0.5 and modify the command from
g++ -shared -Wl,-soname,libcyusb.so -o lib/libcyusb.so.1 lib/libcyusb.o -l libusb-1.0 -l rt
to
g++ -shared -Wl,-soname,libcyusb.so -o lib/libcyusb.so.1 lib/libcyusb.o -l usb-1.0 -l rt
Please try and tell me the result.

Hello Bill,
As it can be seen from the error while running the make command, it looks like the libusb-1.0.x is not installed on your machine. Kindly, install the same and then run the make command.
Best regards,
Srinath S

Hi Srinath,
I unzipped the entire ZIP package from Cypress onto my system. I ran thru the install sequence in the "libusb-1.0.9" directory: ./configure; make; make install. I did not see any errors. This should install libusb-1.0.9, correct?
Is there a complete installation sequence for building the FX3 executable? It seems like I am missing some guide. Every folder has some installation sequence in it and I am not sure I have gotten everything.
Thanks,
Bill

Hi William,
To install libusb, you could just run the command
sudo apt-get install libusb-1.0-0-dev
Also, you need to add the CYUSB_ROOT in PATH value.

Thank you Yangyang! I will try this, this evening.

Well, I apt-get installed libusb and I used
export CYUSB_ROOT=Desktop/FX3_SDK_1.3.4_Linux/cyusb_linux_1.0.5
and still get the same error from g++ when doing the make.
Note that it says it cannot find -llibusb-1.0. Is that odd that it leaves out the space between -l and libusb?
Any other suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Bill

YangYang,
Yes changing to "USB-1.0" allowed the Make file to run without error. Thank you very much!
Now I am on to trying to do the sudo ./install.sh
But the install fails when trying to compile:
I am guessing that the include in main.cpp for libusb is not pointing to the correct directory...
Thank you again. Bill

I just found this:
cyusb_linux Install Error: libusb_get_ss_endpoint_companion_descriptor not declared
I will try reinstalling a later version of libusb and running through the procedure again.

Hi Yangyang,
Still no luck. I followed the instructions in the previous post and the ./install.sh yields the same error:

It seems like my libusb is at the level discussed, but the install still fails for:

By doing a complete reinstall of Ubuntu 16.04 on my computer, I was able to get thru the make and ./install.sh without errors.
Now when I try to run cyusb_linux from a terminal, I get:
cyusb_linux: error while loading shared libraries: libcyusb.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I have set a up a path in .bashrc that includes the path to the libcyusb.so but no luck.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks, Bill

Hi Yangyang,

cyusb_linux: error while loading shared libraries: libcyusb.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Am I missing something obvious? Could you post your echo $PATH?
Thanks,

Check the screenshot. Confirm that you follow the FX3_SDK_Linux_Support_0.pdf along with SDK to define necessary environment variables. The .doc file which I sent you before had the same content.

To confirm whether the Makefile is correct, I find another Linux machine to re-install FX3 SDK v1.3.4. The result shows the Makefile is correct. The SDK could be installed correctly.
Please check why the print result is incorrect according to your screenshot. I attach my resluts here for reference.
One more suggestion:write export PATH= ...... in /ect/profile instead of run in terminal.
