Why are quartus ii 9.1 so ugly in linux

thepancake,

Thank you, i dont really catch it at the beginning.

logicmd,

you're happy even though you can only really really ugly GUI,

Because I could not boot it.

It is not the quetion for this thread, However, please tell me the way to boot or the location of that.

I installed quartus ii 9 into removable HDD, and it is mounted at /media/disk-10.

I have made sure that quartus is installed at that, but I'm completely not sure where is the binary file to boot the developer.

Thanks !

ioriveur,

i'm now in windows system, and i remember the default installing location is /opt/altera9.10/

And the launch binary should be /opt/altera9.10/quartus/bin/quartus if I don't make a mistake.

you said that you have installed it in a removable HDD? You had to at least remember the location you have installed. It should be in the similar place.

HDD path is mostly located in /media/[HDD label name]/blabla(i'm ubuntu 9.10), if you locate the installing path, i'm sure you can launch quartus easily.

thanks a lot, logicmd.

i could found the binary file, and it seems that it will start with gui.

But something go on.

I received message that, x could not start it. This is not blame of altera, but OpenSuSE. I googled it and make some efforts to resolve it, but failed. I have not boot it with sudo or so on. (many case is in su or sudo)

And in the case of other application, sometime happen so, other case do not. I can not stand anymore to use it, because there were no such problems, when I used to use Debian or Ubuntu.

I'll try to use other OS instead.

thanks any way!

after all, I installed Debian, (not k/freeBSD), and copy to /bin from SuSE's /bin/tcsh and csh.

It works, and it looks there no problems.

So, I want to learn about VHDL, and try to LED-Blinker at first.

And, the GUI, is not so ugly than what I imagined. Not beautiful, but clearly.

Thanks to everyone!

Well, I try to use "./qgui" at the bin folder, but it was not found.

So, I used find command to find qgui, but i couldn't get.

I'm sorry but I'll give up to use qgui, It works anyway......

logicmd,

I use windows since Win95 and linux since 1998. I develop opensource software ( ) and I use both opensource and comercial CAD software. I'm sorry but I really no not unserstand your point. Quartus has one of the nicest GUIs out there. And they even use Qt (the best GUI tookit ever).

How you can tell that Quartus II is using qt?
