I am trying to install Labview 8.6.1, Daqmx Base 3.2, and Ni-Kal 1.9 on a laptop running Opensuse 11.1 to use with a usb device, NI-9233. I understand that 11.1 is not supported and we have successfully used 10.3, Labview 8.5, and Nikal 1.7 on another laptop. However, we want to use the latest OS so stay more up to date. I have used our previous steps of install that I posted here in case it helps.
The problem seems to either be with building or loading the nipalk module. I have successfully installed Labview, Ni-Kal, and mx Base and can successfully run updateNIDrivers but when I run lsdaq I get the following:
--------------------------------
Detecting National Instruments DAQ Devices
Found the following DAQ Devices:
libnipalu.so failed to initialize
Perhaps you need to run updateNIDrivers
/usr/local/bin/lsdaq: line 7: 4825 Aborted /etc/natinst/nidaqmxbase/bin/daqmxbase_listdevices
--------------------------------
When I run a vi using the usb device, Labview simply crashes. Before the successful install I had problems installing Ni-Kal. Opensuse 11.1 installs a pae kernel by default so I reinstalled Suse without it, passed mem=4096 to the boot loader and built the new kernel and modules with the commands:
make
make modules_install
make modules install
After these steps everything goes on without errors but I run into the problem I mentioned above. Also, after this, no kernel modules are loaded. I see no ni modules with lsmod. I can manully load nikal but when I try to load nipalk I get:
# modprobe nipalk
FATAL: Error inserting nipalk (/lib/modules/2.6.27.7-9-default/kernel/natinst/nipal/nipalk.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
and niorbk gives:
#modprobe niorbk
WARNING: Error inserting nipalk (/lib/modules/2.6.27.7-9-default/kernel/natinst/nipal/nipalk.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
FATAL: Error inserting niorbk (/lib/modules/2.6.27.7-9-default/kernel/natinst/nicore/niorbk.ko): Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
Has anyone seen this or know what the problem could be. Thanks.
