15 years agoInstallation of 10.1_quartus_free_linux.sh on Ubuntu 10.04
Hey,
I have been trying to install the 10.1 free version of quartus on the Ubuntu 10.04 32bit The installation for Quartus succeeds but then it fails when trying to install the Device families. I have been running the following command and havent patched the install filebash ./10.1_quartus_free_linux.sh Before this I have tried bash ./10.1_quartus_free_linux.sh --no-exec There is no libX11.so.* in the 10.1_quartus_free_linux.sh/altera_installer/bin directory As such I thought that the installation would succeed. The installation proceeds halfway with QPixmap warnings. Then when trying to install some family of devices it fails. I have attached a sample error log.

After the this the GUI installer crashes. Reading the contents of the /tmp/altera_setup.log gives: ./altera_installer/setup: line 59: exec: altera_installer_cmd: not found Note: Running multiple runs of the installer, I have noticed that it fails on different device families. Any suggestions?
