That is great. With all this run into a problem,

$ vsim

Error: cannot find /opt/altera9.1/modelsim_ase/bin/linux/vsim

This gives me an idea that a symlink is missing. I think I need to do this

~ ]$ cd /opt/altera9.1/modelsim_ase/bin/

bin]$ ln -s ../linux .

This does make it better, I don't know if this is right or I am missing something. Looking at the driving script, they do expect bin/linux to be there, I think the installation script forgets to make the symlink.

Looking through the installation log, I do see partial instructions for exporting the environment. This is strange, that would be the last place I would look for "Instructions".
