Getting errors during installation of NI-488.2 drivers on CentOS 7

Hi,

I am trying to install the NI-488.2 drivers provided here, on a fresh install of CentOS 7 (centOS 7 seems to be available for x86_64 architectures only).

 

First error I get during the installation is the following  :

/lib/ld-linux.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory

So I guess this is because of some missing 32 bits library, I look on the web and end up doing :

yum -y install glibc.i686

The previous error seems fixed but then I get this one :

Warning :nikali post installation failed! /tmp/nikaliPostInstall.log follows:
nikal: ERROR: Error locating kernel sources for the requested kernel version (3.10.0-327.el7.x86_64).

which is weird, because the requested kernel version seems to match the one I get with uname -a. I tried to install the kernel-devel package but does not solve anything.

 

I tried to reboot and execute /usr/local/bin/gpibexplorer just in case and encountered a problem with libgcc_s.so.1 and libgl, which I installed.

I also ran updateNIDrivers which seemed to succeed and rebooted.

Finally, running gpibexplorer seems to work for a bit (a window appears) and then crashes instantly with the following error message :

libnipalu.so failed to initialize

I did not find a solution to fix this last issue yet.

 

Thanks for your help.
