17 years agoHello! Please, give me instructions how to install Quartus 8.0 on Kubuntu 8.04? I followed instructions of instaling Quartus 7.2 on Kubuntu 7.10 with all necessary changes and differences, but it shows me error:
MwCreateRegistryServer failed: CreateProcess failed. P.S. I have some experience with devices and software tools of Altera's competitor and thinking about to switch to them with new projects... + because they offer FREE NATIVE Linux tools for small and average devices! Altera needs only ONE extra worker (this is very small for big corporation such as Altera) to test Quartus on ALL popular Linux distros and make instructions how to install Quartus for every distro! :mad: :( How can I transfer my wishes about Linux support to Altera's managing directors (or somebody who can solve this serious problem?)... Here is my running script...#!/bin/bash
