Hi thanks for this guide. I ran it and now my '/modelsim_ase/bin$ ./vsim' is working and opening the GUI,
But sadly the '/modelsim_ase/linuxaloem$ ./vsim' that Quartus is using still does not work (same crush log sadly).
any suggested step you think might help?

Hi,
I think I've got a solution for you to launch RTL simulation with ModelSim FROM Quartus.
In Quartus (18.1 with Ubuntu 18.04 LTS) -> Tools -> Options
Tab General -> EDA Tool Options
In ModelSim-Altera, browse to /home/XXXXXXXX/intelFPGA_lite/18.1/modelsim_ase/bin
Please note /modelsim_ase/bin and NOT /modelsim_ase/linuxaloem who doesn't work for me like you.
LEt me know ! Work for me !

Hi,
with all of the above I am able to run the modelsim GUI via the vsim command.
But so far I can NOT start modelsim via quartus "Run Simulation Tool". If I attempt it, I get the following error:
Info: Info: Successfully spawned ModelSim-Altera Simulation software
Error in startup script:
Initialization problem, exiting.Initialization problem, exiting.
Initialization problem, exiting.
while executing

Nevermind, it works now. I had specified a wrong path... my bad.
