Solution# 1: Stop using Ubuntu. Its not supported by Altera, and if you have any problems with the tools, you're unlikely to get help. Just install Centos 6.2 and everything will work correctly.

Solution# 2: Ok, so you want to keep using Ubuntu. Even though you get an error, the archive was unzipped ok, so the next step is to:

cd 11.1sp2_259_quartus_free_linux
sudo /bin/bash ./setup

and follow the GUI prompts. You may however get additional library library errors because Ubuntu is not supported.

Cheers,

Dave
