======= Impact (cable drivers) on Ubuntu ======

===== Ubuntu 12.04 and Xilinx 14.6 =====
1. You must INSTALL Xilinx tools not just copy it to get possibility to program a device.
 Instalator modify a system in several places not only copynig files to pointed directory.

Created files/directories:
<code>
/etc/udev/rules.d/52-digilent-usb.rules
/etc/digilent-adept.conf
/usr/local/sbin/dftdrvdtch
/usr/local/lib64/digilent/adept/*
</code>

2. After instalation go through points 1 to 4 in the description of instllation on Ubuntu 10.04.
Point 5 is not necessary.

===== Ubuntu 10.04 and Xilinx 13.4 =====

  *1. Copy the udev rules and adapt the file to the new udev-version

<code>
sudo cp /opt/Xilinx/13.4/ISE_DS/ISE/bin/lin64/xusbdfwu.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/50-xusbdfwu.rules
sudo sed -i -e 's/TEMPNODE/tempnode/' -e 's/SYSFS/ATTRS/g' -e 's/BUS/SUBSYSTEMS/' /etc/udev/rules.d/50-xusbdfwu.rules
</code>

For Debain >= 7.0 update the UDEV rules by changing the second line from:
<code>
ATTRS{idVendor}=="03fd", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0008", MODE="666"
</code>
to:
<code>
ATTRS{idVendor}=="03fd", ATTRS{idProduct}=="0008", MODE="666", GROUP="plugdev"
</code>
and add yourself to the plugdev group.

If your machine is running 32-bit Linux change ''lin64'' to ''lin'' on the first line. \\
Change ''/opt/Xilinx/13.4'' on the first line if your path to Xilinx or ise version are different. 

  *2. Copy the hex-files used by different Xilinx cables to ''/usr/share'' and make them readable by regular users

<code>
sudo cp /opt/Xilinx/13.4/ISE_DS/ISE/bin/lin64/xusb*.hex /usr/share/
sudo chmod 644 /usr/share/xusb*.hex
</code>

Again, change path and ''lin64'' as you need.

  *3. Install ''fxload'', which is used by the rules, and ''libusb-dev'', which is needed by iMPACT

<code>
sudo apt-get install fxload libusb-dev
</code>

  *4. Restart udev (in Debian >= 7.0 reboot)

<code>
sudo restart udev
</code>

  *5. To make planAhead work two script files must be edited.

<code>
sudo sed -i -e 's/#!\/bin\/sh/#!\/bin\/bash/' /opt/Xilinx/13.4/ISE_DS/PlanAhead/bin/planAhead
sudo sed -i -e 's/#!\/bin\/sh/#!\/bin\/bash/' /opt/Xilinx/13.4/ISE_DS/PlanAhead/bin/loader
</code>

Again change path and version.
