Hum, i think i am doing something wrong because there is no way to install even in commanda line. How did you do that? I burned an .iso and autorun does not open. Is there any guide step-by-step to install?
I just took a look and i did not find it. Maybe i will have to take a closer look, but if you know at glance it might help. Thanks again. - Altera_Forum

--- Quote Start --- How did you do that? --- Quote End --- My notes say; 1) Install 11.1 first - 11.1_173_quartus_linux.sh – 11.1_173_devices_cyclone_max_legacy_linux.sh – 11.1_173_devices_arria_linux.sh – 11.1_173_devices_stratix_hardcopy_linux.sh 2) Then install the Quartus 11.1sp1 service pack update – 11.1sp1_216_quartus_linux.sh 3) Then install Modelsim-ASE 11.1sp1 - 11.1sp1_216_modelsim_ase_linux.sh (No need to install 11.1 Modelsim-ASE first) Cheers, Dave - Altera_Forum

Just one last confirmation:
All was installed with ./ with su right? Thanks - Altera_Forum

Another question:
How to set the display variable with a valid X display for a GUI? Which X display you are using. I just installed and could not add/remove a X display. I did not work. Thanks again, - Altera_Forum

If you have sshed into the Centos 6.2 machine, then use ssh -X <machine>. If you have not installed X at all, then you've likely messed up your Centos install. I'd guess you might want to start again, or perhaps 'yum install gnome' and pickup all the dependencies. Personally, I'd start from scratch to make sure you have a decent Centos 6.2 install. I install a workstation install. Cheers, Dave - Altera_Forum

I am using a software development workstation. I downloaded from centos.org the 6.2 version. I installed everything again and everything was the same. I will try to make all you said now. Thanks again.

--- Quote Start --- I am using a software development workstation. --- Quote End --- Ok, that sounds like what I installed. Do you have a graphical desktop, or are you sitting at a command line? If you have a graphical desktop running, then you should have no problems with the Quartus install. You run the script, it pops up the installer GUI, and you follow the prompts.

Yes i am using a graphical desktop, but the installer GUI does no pop up. I will try to install X.
