Modelsim simulation in Linux

Hi, I've been using Quartus II for a school work, but there we were taught how to simulate using Vector Waveform inside Quartus II in version 9.01 . I'm having a little trouble trying to do tha...

Hello all, Mike here. I'm new to the forums. I'm new to learning FPGAs/VHDL. I'm trying to add some new skills. I purchased an ED1 board and a book "Rapid Prototyping of Digital Systems". The book uses Quartus II example but unfortunately doesn't cover the new version 13 of the web edition. This thread is related so I thought I would just continue on with it instead of creating a new one.

So, I created the simple OR gate design in the block diagram/schematic window shown in the beginning of the book but the book uses the vector waveform file to simulate the design. Obviously they are using the Altera ModelSim software which I have downloaded the starter version of.

I have no clue how to proceed at this point to simulate this simple design. Can these "schematic capture" designs be simulated in ModelSim?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
