When the Xilinx workstation install program runs, the following translation table syntax error warnings may appear:
Warning: translation table syntax error: Unknown keysym name: osfSelect Warning: ... found while parsing ' <Key>osfSelect: ManagerGadgetSelect() ' Warning: translation table syntax error: Unknown keysym name: osfHelp Warning: ... found while parsing ' <Key>osfHelp: ManagerGadgetHelp() '
The Xilinx Install program runs under OpenWindows, and the problem is usually caused by a missing, incomplete, or incompatible XKeysymDB file. XKeysymDB is an ASCII file which defines keyboard bindings or functions, and it is operating system-specific.
The XACT Install program expects the XKeysymDB file to be in /usr/lib/X11 in all cases, but often it is located in /usr/openwin/lib on Sun and Solaris platforms.
