Hi all, I have a Papilio One 500K board. I starting using a ZAP IDE yesterday, it is working in the beginnig. Firstly i try the ZPUino vanilia variant, i burn the bootloader and download the quickstart program. Today i started writing some program by my own, but i discovered, the ZPUino soft processor not implement some Arduino functions. Then i wanted to try switch the processor to the AVR 8 Shifty variant, but i gotten error message. The exact error message: " java.lang.NullPointerException at processing.app.debug.BasicUploader.burnBootloader(BasicUploader.java:295)at processing.app.Editor$61.run(Editor.java:2722)at java.awt.event.InvocationEvent.dispatch(InvocationEvent.java:209)at java.awt.EventQueue.dispatchEvent(EventQueue.java:597)at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpOneEventForFilters(EventDispatchThread.java:269)at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForFilter(EventDispatchThread.java:184)at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEventsForHierarchy(EventDispatchThread.java:174)at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(EventDispatchThread.java:169)at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.pumpEvents(EventDispatchThread.java:161)at java.awt.EventDispatchThread.run(EventDispatchThread.java:122)" I try any other soft processor burning to the, but i got the same error message. I do a restart, reinstall the ZAP IDE and clean junk flies from my PC (with CCleaner), but the bootloader burner still not work Please help me. István

I'm a Noob with a Papilio Pro, LogicStart MegaWing and have had some success and great fun following the Intro to Spartan FPGA book - so thank you. I'd like to have a go with ZAP IDE / ZPUino but I'm falling at the first hurdle - getting the IDE running on Linux - specifically Ubuntu 13.10 It seems that I'm attempting to use 32bit code on my 64bit architecture. stu@glenmoray:~/Downloads/papilio-zap-ide$ sudo ./zap[sudo] password for stu:Fontconfig warning: "/etc/fonts/conf.d/50-user.conf", line 14: reading configurations from ~/.fonts.conf is deprecated.OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM warning: You have loaded library /home/stu/Downloads/papilio-zap-ide/lib/librxtxSerial.so which might have disabled stack guard. The VM will try to fix the stack guard now.It's highly recommended that you fix the library with 'execstack -c <libfile>', or link it with '-z noexecstack'.java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /home/stu/Downloads/papilio-zap-ide/lib/librxtxSerial.so: /home/stu/Downloads/papilio-zap-ide/lib/librxtxSerial.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32 (Possible cause: architecture word width mismatch) thrown while loading gnu.io.RXTXCommDriverException in thread "main" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /home/stu/Downloads/papilio-zap-ide/lib/librxtxSerial.so: /home/stu/Downloads/papilio-zap-ide/lib/librxtxSerial.so: wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32 (Possible cause: architecture word width mismatch) at java.lang.ClassLoader$NativeLibrary.load(Native Method) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary1(ClassLoader.java:1965) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary0(ClassLoader.java:1890) at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary(ClassLoader.java:1880)Recognising this, if I'm correct, and having the knowledge to do something about it are different things for me (and I suspect other beginners). Previous posts about Ubuntu 13.04 have suggested: sudo apt-get install ia32-libsbut this doesn't work on Ubuntu 13.10. Could anyone help me get over the hurdle of installing the simple IDE for the simple Soft processor - feeling very thick. Stu

Hi, Does anybody have a method of porting libraries? Thanks
