  • Hi Sagar,

    Do you install DM816x EZSDK 5.05.02.00? This version is supported with Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.

    Please provide full console log of the EZSDK installation procedure, including your error message.

    The vim editor is not specific for the DM816x EZSDK. It is generic. I am able to install vim successful on my Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64-bit PC. I would suggest you to ask/post in generic Linux/Ubuntu forums regarding vim editor installation issue.
