I'm experiencing the same here.
My configuration is:
Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 3.19.0-25-generic
DE5-Net BSP/Driver: Modified v14.0
AOCL Version: 15.0.2
Quartus II: 15.0.2
I saw that patch 0.19 for quartus ii 14.1 (
https://www.altera.com/support/support-resources/knowledge-base/solutions/rd01272015_37.html) addressed this issue but in the web page of the patch it's also written that the problem is solved in Quartus 15.0 :confused:
I tried to check the files inside the patch and some of them are actually the same files in my Quartus 15.0.2. I also tried to patch my Quartus 15.0.2 (even if the patch is not made for this version) but nothing changed; the problem is still there.
The good news is that
aocl program tool and API calls let me program the device anyway.
If somebody could help here to solve the situation it would be nice anyway,
Nicola.
