    Hi,

    After further checking, it looks like quartus_cvp is no longer supported. Sorry for the inconvenience.

    Could you try to restart your PC again and try to performed "cp <filename>.core.rbf /dev/altera_cvp"? I suspect that the PCIe link might be in used which cause the issue.

Hi,

I understand that you are using the open source code previously. If you go to <Quartus Prime installation path>/quartus/drivers/wdrvr/linux<32 or 64> then you will be able to make and configure the Official Quartus quartus_cvp command from the Quartus installation. Please follow the bellow step in order to install the PCIe driver before you are able to use quartus_cvp.

Installing Jungo WinDriver in Linux Systems

  1. Navigate to <Quartus Prime installation path>/quartus/drivers/wdrvr/linux<32 or 64>
  2. Run the following commands:
    1. ./configure --disable-usb-support
    2. make
    3. su
    4. make install
  3. You can change the permissions for the device file. For example, chmod 666 /dev/windrvr6.
  4. For 64-bit Linux systems, set the Quartus_64BIT environment variable before you run quartus_cvp using the following command:
    1. export QUARTUS_64BIT=1
  5. You can use the quartus_cvp command to download *core .rbf files to your FPGA. The following table lists the quartus_cvp commands for all modes

    John, I don't have the driver folder in the Quartus installation path. I installed the jungo windriver and configured it similarly to the one you indicated, following the installation tutorial on the official website. But I still have the result of the previous answer
