I've had good luck running LV7.1 on Suse 10.1 and 10.3 (x86_64). I have installed the box version from Novell of Suse 10.3 and now get the following errors:
Linux version 2.6.22.5-31-default (geeko@buildhost) (gcc version 4.2.1 (SUSE Linux)) #1 SMP 2007/09/21 22:29:00 UTC
glibc is:
2.6.1-18 (and I've tried 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5)
NI-KAL? How do I find out? Just for giggles, I looked it up and downloaded it, tried to make it but it complained about my 64 bit system. The thing is, I have had it working on my 64 bit system before the OS renewal (clean hard drive).
For what it's worth, running gdb on LabView shows an infinite loop at:

Hopefully, someone familiar with the internals can help figure this out. ...Dan
NI-KAL is a low-layer driver between the Linux kernel and National Instruments software. You can find information on the various versions under What is “an appropriate version of NI-KAL”? However, it sounds like the version you have currently is fine.
I'm glad to hear you've found a solution. Thanks for sharing the information.
