Installing Quartus II on Ubuntu 14.0 LTS and USB Blaster problem

Hi,

I had similar problems with the Quartus Programmer on Fedora; I never tried it on Ubuntu, but I guess it'll work there as well: http://fpgacpu.ca/fpga/usb-blaster-debian.html (http://fpgacpu.ca/fpga/usb-blaster-debian.html).

In a nutshell:

• create the file "/etc/udev/rules.d/51-altera-usb-blaster.rules" (as root)

• edit the file (as root), set the contents to "ATTR{idVendor}=="09fb", ATTR{idProduct}=="6001", MODE="666""

It might also be required to set up the JTAG server:

• create a directory for the JTAG server: "mkdir /etc/jtagd"

• copy and rename the JTAG server config file: "cp /opt/altera/13.0sp1/linux/quartus/linux/pgm_parts.txt /etc/jtagd/jtagd.pgm_part"

I'm afraid I cannot answer your second question, though.

Best regards,
