Kicad pwr & gnd inconsistencies ...

Design Concepts

hello,

I need your help.

i’m using KICAD 20100314 SVN R2460 version but I’m sure it doesn’t matter with my

words here..

I have some problem with power components: some give me errors type 3

I tried to remove them, put another one, remade the connection to be sure… but

I still have some inconsistencies :frowning:

I tried to use another lib for that too.. for instance, Vcc & GND from sparkfun

library, or from the native one etc.

I have errors when I run ERC …

I remove, I replace, I rerun ERC, it gives me the same error but at another place, not appearing at the first ERC etc etc

Should I remove all of them and use wire labelling instead of power objects ?

any ideas or tips would be appreciated!!

I’ve got no idea man, i’ve only used Kicad a little bit but i found fairly buggy

hello,

as I don’t like cracked thing, if I used Eagle, I could only do very little board.

so kicad is a very fine alternative, not as buggy as you wrote :stuck_out_tongue:

gEDA seems to be a nice alternative too…

I’m installing virtualbox for making a virtual machine linux in order to test it here.

i don’t know if geda/kicad conversion are fully integrated
