Linux/DLP3010: how to install DLP3010 GUI on Virtualbox ubuntu linux 64bit ?

Part Number: DLP3010
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DLPC3438

Tool/software: Linux

Hello.
An error has occurred.
I currently have a 64bit linux operating system installed using the Oracle VM virtualbox on top of the Windows 10 operating system.
And the EVM specification is as follows:
Main board - DLP3010
DLP LightCrafter Display board - DLPC3438
Engine with LED connection and Flex cable


'DLP LightCrafter Display complete EVM' has been completed by referring to 'DLP® LightCrafter ™ Display 3010 EVM User's Guide'.

I also confirmed that the screen actually came out by turning on the power.

I also wanted to install the GUI tool to control the EVM by referring to the 'DLP® LightCrafter ™ Display EVM GUI Tool Users Guide (Rev. B)'.

However, there is an entry called 'Windows XP SP3 or greater' in the 'System Requirements' section on page 3 of this document.

So let me ask you a question here.

1. Is it not possible to use EVM GUI Tool on linux64bit installed in virtual environment?

If it is available, please let me know how to install it.

I tried to install it as described in the document, but the following error occurred.
The program CyDriverInstaller_x64.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.
This can be caused by a problem or a defect in Wine. You may want to check out the application database.
(Note that Wine is the software that allows you to run exe files for Windows on Linux.) I think that running an application for Windows on Linux would obviously have caused an error.

2. Also, in the 3page 3 section of this document, the version of the installer provided by the installer link is v6.1. Where can I download v7.0 from the documentation?

Thank you for reading my article. Answers I'll wait.

  •  continued question 1, this is error picture when i finally installed (but error) and execute DLP LightCrafter Display V6.1

  • Hello Jang,

    The LightCrafter Display EVM GUI is only supported for Windows. While Wine apparently let you install the software, it's not a perfect emulation for Windows applications, therefore explaining the error. Unfortunately this is not something we support. If you have a specific reason you need Linux please let me know and I'll see if we can find alternative solutions.

    Version 6.1 is the current version of the LightCrafter GUI. The 7.0 mentioned in the document is not yet available. Sorry for the inconvenience. However, you will likely have the same issues on the current and future releases.

    Thanks,
    Kyle
