    It seems that Quartus Lite version only supports simulator from Mentor Graphic(siemen) only.

    If you want to use a simulator other than Mentor on Linux, use Quartus Prime Standard or Pro Edition.

    Hi Richard,

    I installed Quartus Lite 18.1 on Linux OS, but eda/sim_lib/synopsys is missing. Can you please confirm that it is expected?
    Also installed Quartus Standard Edition on Windows, then Mentor and Aldec are supported.
    Should I try Quartus Standard Edition on Linux to get Synopsys simulation models?

    Thanks,
    Janos
