Quartus v7.2 - UBUNTU v8.04, Hardy

Thanks sglow!

I'm still debugging this problem... but bottom line is I'm getting no-where. The strace outputs of a system that works (v7.10) and this one (v8.04) are full of errors that apparently don't matter - as they show up in both but one of them works. They both terminate the trace with "gettimeofday" entries like those in the given trace.

If I had to guess, it's an "X" problem. But I'm stuck. Deal is - the graphical desktop hangs, I ctrl-alt-f1 to another terminal and can't even kill the quartus job. We're now headed down the road to use a virtual machine running CentOS to run this tool.

Trace follows:
