    It should. I have run Quartus under Centos and Ubuntu and it works just fine.

    Install it and see. If you don't want to wait for your IT department, install the OS into a virtual machine, and then install Quartus in there. The only thing that won't work well in that setup is the USB-Blaster won't attach to the VM properly (at least under recent versions of VMWare workstation and VirtualBox).

    Cheers,

    CentOS6 won't be officially supported until V12.0. By that, it means that Altera won't do any testing until V12.0, but just like all Ubuntu users know, that does not mean it won't work.
