Hello,
I use DAQmx on Linux. I am now moving from SL6 to a newer distribution for my new computers. I struggle to get DAQmx to install.
If I try to install DAQmx straight, I get the following message:
Checking required install tools... Checking installer tool versions... dpkg Not found in current path rpm 4.11.3 can be used with a default installation path tar 1.28 Checking dependencies... glibc 2.19 Unpacking install files to /tmp/nidaqmx-8.0.2f0.install... *********************************** ERROR ************************************ * ERROR: 3.16 kernels are not supported! * * Running a 2.6.x kernel is required to continue this installation. * *********************************** ERROR ************************************ Installer is aborted.
Now, I understand that NI-KAL has to be installed first. So, I get it from the latest NI-VISA. NI-VISA 15 installs fine. But now, when I try to install DAQmx, I get this:

Installer is aborted.
Is there any workaroung ?
Or is NI planning on updating the DAQmx installer, so that it is properly packaged with respect to the newer libraries ?
Thank you for your help,

Hi jsalort,
What distribution Linux do you use ? SL7 or SL6 ?
If you use SL7, it's not supported :

Hi Eloise,
Thank you for your reply. I am using 32-bits OpenSUSE 12.3.

Hi Julien,
Could you try to install DAQmx Base 14.0 (unless I am mistaken you try to install version 8.0.2 which does not support OPEN SUSE 12.3)

Hello,
Indeed, DAQmx Base 14.0 installs fine. I don't know if my hardware will be supported with DAQmx Base though.
Is NI planning to update the DAQmx install package ?
Thank you
