Hi
I have installed Labview 8.6 under Intrepid Ibex (8.10) Ubuntu distribution
and then I have downloaded the DAQmx driver (DAQmx801f0.iso) from the national site and saved in my computer directory
max@skynet:~/Scrivania/Documenti/linux/DAQmx801f0$ ls -l

At beginnin I had not suppllied the RPM files and Ubuntu installed DAQmx without errors but in the in the "programming palette ----> measurament I/O" I had not found any new icones.
I have been supplied the RPM files:
sudo apt-get install rpm
and I have re-installed the drivers
max@skynet:~/Scrivania/Documenti/linux/DAQmx801f0$ sudo ./INSTALL
Ubuntu say me:
Checking required install tools...
Checking installer tool versions...
rpm 4.4.2.3 can be used with a default installation path
tar 1.20
Checking dependencies...
Warning: glibc was not found in the rpm database, but
it appears to be installed on your system.
This most likely means you are not using a RPM based
Linux distribution, and need to manually populate your
RPM database, or install with the --nodeps option.
Then I respond with:
max@skynet:/media/cdrom$ sudo ./INSTALL --nodeps
and Ubuntu again:
Checking required install tools...
Checking installer tool versions...
rpm 4.4.2.3 can be used with a default installation path
tar 1.20
Checking dependencies...
glibc 2.8.90

Error installing NI-DAQmx for Linux Installer Distribution 8.0.1f0.
Installer is aborted.
Please Note: In a precedent installation attempt Ubuntu, while it was installing the RPM files, said me twice there was a "bad loop for" and then it aborted the installer.
Are there any people that have already coped with this problem? (and maybe solved)
Thank you very much!
