[pliang001]

Hello All,

Can you give me some guidance on How to install NI USB 621X driver on unbuntu 12.04 64bit?

Previously, I successfully installed the driver on ubuntu 12.04 32bit . but I have to change my pc to unbuntu 64bit for further research.

I tried to install the driver with previous method. but I failed.

When I input lsdaq, it shows:

lsdaq: command not found

I find the lsdaq file and run in the terminnal, following error occurs:

Found the following DAQ Devices:

/etc/natinst/nidaqmxbase/bin/daqmxbase_listdevices: error while loading shared libraries: libdaqmxbase_listdevices_so.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

--------------------------------

I need your help badly

Thank you.

Kind regards,

John

Hello, your error is in the description. NiDAQmx package, which supports you devices, supports linux 32-bit. You should install and try it under Ubuntu 32-bit.

Hi, Thank you for your answer. It did work on ubuntu 32-bit, but is there any way to make it work on ubuntu 64bit?

Hi, First time I installed DAQmx into Mageia 2 64-bit. I think, I got the same error as you. After it didn't workaround on it. I installed Mageia 2 32-bit, which worked with DAQmx without problem.
