Quartus II Web Edition 10.1 Linux + Ubuntu 10.10 AMD64 + USB Blaster

Hello!

I have problems with programmes, since Ubuntu 10.10 has no usbfs.

I found this soultion:

http lowerstrata blogspot com 2010 09 altera-quartus-ii-web-edition-100-with html

sudo mount --bind /dev/bus /proc/bus

sudo ln -s /sys/kernel/debug/usb/devices /proc/bus/usb/devices

After this, Quartus II see USB Blaster and I can choose it in programmer. 

bash ./jtagconfig
/home/s/t/altera/10.1/quartus/adm/qenv.sh: line 109: warning: setlocale: LC_CTYPE: cannot change locale (en_US): No such file or directory
1) USB_Blaster 
  Unable to lock chain (Insufficient port permissions)
USB_Blaster [USB 5-1.1] - good, but "Unable to lock chain (Insufficient port permissions)"...

So, I'm unable to use it...

since I have 64-bit OS (Quartus II working great, because I have ia32 libs), I used linux32 script - no luck

sudo bash ./jtagconfig - same...

    You don't want to do it that way. Follow the advice of Tristan in this thread instead.
