Torben:

You should not have to use sudo (SuperUser DO) as this elevates you from your user level (torben) to root user.

This may be causing issues where you are saving files as user torben, but when you become root, root's directory may be checked for the file.

sudo is a dangerous tool and is meant to be used for specific uses such as installing software.?? Using it excessively can cause a typo to have catastrophic consequences.?? When your computer is configured correctly you should be able to run gschem or pcb (etc.) with your own user (torben) level privileges.

Hope this helps.

Hi,
Is Wilson's tutorial up-to-date? I run:

torben AT torben-Aspire-E5-773G:~/gaf/myproject3$ sudo gsch2pcb project

with 2 resistors and get:
----------------------------------
Done processing.?? Work performed:
2 file elements and 0 m4 elements added to board.pcb.

Next step:
1.?? Run pcb on your file board.pcb.
?? ?? You will find all your footprints in a bundle ready for you to place
?? ?? or disperse with "Select -> Disperse all elements" in PCB.

2.?? From within PCB, select "File -> Load netlist file" and select
?? ?? board.net to load the netlist.

3.?? From within PCB, enter

?? ?? ?? ?? ?? ??:ExecuteFile(board.cmd)

?? ?? to propagate the pin names of all footprints to the layout.

I then run:
torben AT torben-Aspire-E5-773G:~/gaf/myproject3$ sudo pcb board.pcb

and get:
File 'board.pcb' has no font information, using default font
??
I then get the rather empty looking screen shown attached.

I can disperse the components and run the netlist, but when I run

sudo :ExecuteFile(board.cmd) (or :ExecuteFile(board.cmd))
??nothing happens

Incidentally, when I run:

sudo gschem one.sch

the curser moves to the next line. It looks as if some input is expected. What?


Can anyone help?
best regards
torben

Hi ,
I have been looking fo the above element, but I cannot find it. I have been looking for .../newlib and found it in two places, but neither one appeared to provide it.
Is there anywhere else I can look for it?
