Can cleverscope run on any Linux platform? how?
i have read some posts about run it on Linux, it seems it's not recommended to run it through WINE, and the Administrator also said they are working on a Linux driver, but i could not find it anywhere on website. I also want to know which Linux system it supports, and how?
my OS is Fedora 9 and 10..
Thank you very much.

Re: Can cleverscope run on any Linux platform? how?
The Linux driver is supplied by National Instruments and must be downloaded from their site. The link is http://joule.ni.com/nidu/cds/view/p/id/1074/lang/en and it is only supported on Mandriva, RedHat and SUSE. That is not to say it will not work on others but you will need a good knowedge of Linux.
We have purchased the Linux Labview development software and have succeeded in installing the NI-Visa drivers on different distros and machines and hope to have a version available for beta release 2nd quarter 2009.
One user is running the Cleverscope app on a VMWare virtual machine with XP, on a Linux host, without problems.

Any progress on the Linux support ? My PC is running Gentoo 64 bits, is there any chance that the NI driver will work on this platform ?

Re: Can cleverscope run on any Linux platform? how?
I haven't tried the NI Linux driver, but have had no trouble running my Cleverscope in a stripped down WinXP image run under Sun VirtualBox. I'm running a fairly vanilla Ubuntu Karmic release and using the VirtualBox package maintained in the Ubuntu repository. Very simple to install and set up. I'm running this on a 4 year old budget laptop and performance has been excellent. Even with very big frame sizes I get responsive updates.
