Can't launch ModelSim Altera Web Edition

Hello...just downloaded and installed Quartus Webedition 14.0 with Modelsim under Ubuntu 14.04 x86_64

When trying to launch a simulation I get on the console:

Info: Info: Spawning ModelSim-Altera Simulation software 
Info: Info: Successfully spawned ModelSim-Altera Simulation software
** Fatal: Read failure in vlm process (0,0)

I've seen some older posts that ModelSim can't handle newer freetype libraries...
