What an awesome series, this will be my go-to intro resource for MAGIC! Although, I'd warn new FOSSi people that the version of MAGIC VLSI in the Ubuntu APT repository is too old to work on opensource PDKs for the SKY130 or GF180MCU processes.
It is a tool that starts an X11 server. WSL is only a terminal environment without a window manager, and XLaunch allows X11 clients like Magic VLSI create their window much like a native windows application does. I am currently using VcXsrv as an X11 server.
I getting the below error after installing magic. application-specific initialization failed: couldn't connect to display "localhost:0.0" Error in startup script: couldn't connect to display "localhost:0.0" while executing "load /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libtk8.6.so Tk" ("package ifneeded Tk 8.6.10" script) invoked from within "package require Tk $tcl_version" invoked from within "if {$tcl_version < 8.0} { return -code error "tkcon requires at least Tcl/Tk8" } else { # Prevent breaking on version 8.5.2 # package requ..." (file "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/magic/tcl/tkcon.tcl" line 44) Please help
i got the fix its like i spent a hour or so but here you go write this in the teminal export DISPLAY=:0 /usr/bin/magic and it should run or if not you gave to install TCL
Thanks for this tutorial, it has helped me to finish my studies, I hope there were more people who would help the community in this way
I hope so too! I am glad it helped!
