====== Install Xilinx ISE 14.7 under Ubuntu (22.04 LTE) ======

===== Installation =====
  
  sudo ./xsetup
  
If libncurses.so.5 is missing:
  sudo apt-get install libncurses5
  
Run ISE:
  . /opt/Xilinx/14.7/ISE_DS/settings64.sh
  ise
  
===== License =====

ISE license manager is not able to detect the NIC when it is named by the BIOS, which is done by default in newer Ubuntu version. 

Check the name of you NIC:

  ip link show
  
For the ISE license manager the NIC name must start with "eth".

To solve this problem: \\
1) edit the Grub configuration file.
  sudo vi /etc/default/grub

2) Change Parameter:
  GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""
to
  GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="net.ifnames=0 biosdevname=0"
  
3) Apply change to grub.
  sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg

4) Reboot.
