Kinda inconvenient to type in full path to the quartus every time you need it, but I can understand, they are making FPGAs, not the linux software. Ok, it seems like Quartus had been installed into my home folder, console command ~/altera_lite/15.1/quartus/bin/quartus -64bit ![]() Running the icon on the desktop did nothing. sudo apt update & sudo apt install libpng2.0įixed the problem and we’re ready to roll. Libpng or something like that is missing. Not a biggie, heading up to Altera Download Center and downloading Linux distro. And surprise, surprise it doesn’t work from wine. From my previous experience I know it runs nice and easy in Windows environment, so I tried to run with wine.

Unfortunately, Altera USB Blaster User Guide doesn’t shed any light on this problem so I had to find my own way out. ![]() It took me good couple of hours to figure out how to marry USB blaster with Programmer app on my Ubuntu 17.04 install. Today I was really surprised by realizing that Quartus Prime Programmer doesn’t see USB blaster connected to my laptop and cant program the FPGA from linux OS.
