Running Vivado on Linux (Ubuntu)
We just installed Vivado. Now we’re going to run it for the first time.
Open a terminal and source this file source /opt/Xilinx/Vivado/2015.1/settings64.sh. Add it to your ~/.bashrc file so it’s run each time you launch a terminal.
Make a directory for projects and launch vivado. The whole sequence is below.
source /opt/Xilinx/Vivado/2015.1/settings64.sh
mkdir ~/vivado
cd ~/vivado
vivado &Unfortunately, I had some errors at first start-up. The following commands helped.
sudo chmod 777 -R /opt/Xilinx/
sudo chmod 777 -R ~/.Xilinx/Try again.
vivado &Vivado starts up and we’re ready to program!
