ModelSim: Fatal: Trouble with Simulation Kernel

Hi,

I try to use ModelSim-Altera Start Edition from shell on 64bit Debian/Linux. When I double click on a signal of my project, loaded under "work", it crashes with the following message: 


$ export PATH=${PATH}:/opt/altera/13.1/modelsim_ase/linuxaloem/# ...#  setting up project
$ vsim
Reading /opt/altera/13.1/modelsim_ase/tcl/vsim/pref.tcl 
** Fatal: Trouble with Simulation Kernel.

I already tried opeining Modelsim from Quartus II, there it seems to work. Any idea why it crashes?

    I have found one possible cause of this type of error

    Make sure all the undriven output signals in your verilog/systemverilog files assigned to zero value.
