Hello, I downloaded digi7474.7z and tried to run digi_div_7474 from here:
It opens up fine, but when I do Inspect->Simulator it says:
Error: there is no circuit loaded.
Compatibility modes selected: ps lt a
Warning: Nesting of subcircuits with parameters is only marginally supported!
warning, can't find model '1prebar' from line

Circuit: KiCad schematic
Too few parameters for subcircuit type "74hc74" (instance: xxua)
Too few parameters for subcircuit type "74hc74" (instance: xxub)
I get similar errors when I try to manually follow the instructions from here:

I split your post into a separate thread, to keep the thread with examples ācleanā.
You can edit the title to make it a bit more descriptive, by clicking on the pencil on the right side of it (or at least, I think you have that ability). I do not have much experience with ngSpice, so Iāll leave the content of your post for others to answer.
Yup that was it, thank you! All I did was āapt remove libngspice0ā and apt automatically installed libngspice-kicad.

Seems like there should be a better way to announce that? Before ever letting the user start the simulator could kicad check the version of libngspice? I guess the problem is that kicad is just the glue between the text model and the simā¦ still Iām sure it would make for a lot of happy 1st time users if standard components just worked out-of-the-box. The difference between āwow, kicad is the best thing everā and āI gave up, and went to xyz for simulationā
