Issues running Hello World openCL example missing libaltera_a10_ref_mmd.so

I'm trying to compile the hello_world openCL example. At first I was having an issue where it couldn't load the openCL platform. I got past that error by coping the $INTELFPGAOCLSDKROOT/Intel_FPGA_SS...

Hi Mylee,

Apologies for the delayed response. I realized I was on an incompatible version of ubuntu, and have since install 16.04.

However, after following the getting started pdf, I get a coredump from the hello world example

I just attempted to sanity check something, and recompiled both the aocx and the host binary, and I'm now getting the following output.
