LabVIEW
LabVIEW 2025 Q3 Install on Ubuntu 24.04
Solved!Hi Greg
Nice work.
Did you use this recent knowledge base entry :
https://knowledge.ni.com/KnowledgeArticleDetails?id=kA00Z000001DbuaSAC
It includes a py script that should help install everything.
I have not installed anything never than 2021 but your success inspires me to give it a try.
I must admit that it confuses me that we can download a complete set of Linux drivers all the back back to 2018 :
But then we can also download NI-DAQmx drivers for Linux, which are identical to those above.
And we can download CompactRIO drivers for Linux, which seems very odd :
There are only two versions listed and they are identical to the same version files listed in the Device Drivers download. So what is special here. Wonder if it was a mistake ( a question for NI ) ?
Thank You for your hard debugging work.
The device drivers is a combination (meta package) of several NI device drivers just like under Windows?
The individual DAQmx and CompactRIO installers simply install only that specific device driver (and any dependencies which many of them are shared between all NI drivers).
Not everybody wants to install 50GB (on Windows a full install is at least about that size) of software on his development system to just do a little network communication app!
If you don't care about installation size and having unused device drivers on your system, simply install the whole Device Drivers. If you want to customize your installation you can do that to some extend in the Device Driver installer selection dialog (at least under Windows) or you explicitly only download the drivers that you know you want to use and install them.
Hi
I am new to this linux stuff but trying to install and while using sudo apt update I get
As you can see the error shows
I am supposing I am doing something really noob and wrong or the release really does no exist. It is ubuntu 24.04 LTS
Hi
I checked this morning whether I could open Labview 2025 Q3 25.3f0 installed on Ubuntu. And I could.
I originally installed LabVIEW three weeks ago. Together with most of the Device Drivers. No issues then. Installing the drivers is a pretty boring manual command line exercise, but eventually I got it all installed.
Then, one week ago I could not open LabVIEW. It was not activated it said, and suggested I activated it. It would not. And this went on for the week until this morning.
In this week Ubuntu also upgraded from 24.04.2 to 24.04.3. Saying it could only do partial updates which in the past meant you had to be prepared for a full restore as something is out of sync. But Ubuntu updated again on the following days without further scary warnings, so ok.
But now LabVIEW looks ugly. It looked ok three weeks ago. Now the font rendering looks like something from Windows 3 :
Besides the ugly font rendering LabVIEW also does not properly apply the fix to the font offset that Christina Rogers once published a solution for :
