I have succesfully installed Quartus II Web Edition 12.0sp2 on OpenSuSe KDE4 12.1 x86_64.
Quartus II is working in 32 bit operation. (not configured as 64bit during installation)
I have an sample project succesfully compiled without any errors on Quartus II.
But when i try to programm the .sof file to my EP3C25 Starterboard, the programmer doesn’t show the USB-Blaster in the programmer configure window.
If I start de command “hwinfo --usb” by terminal in su mode I get the following output info;
14: USB 00.0: 0000 Unclassified device

So far conclusion SuSe is detecting the USB-Blaster
But when I start the command “jtagconfig” I get the following message;
hkopp64@linux-y0kk:~/altera/12.0sp2/quartus/bin> jtagconfig
*** The Quartus II software cannot be started because the current platform,
‘linux64’, does not appear to be installed in:
‘/home/hkopp64/altera/12.0sp2/quartus’.
Error (Server error) when scanning hardware
hkopp64@linux-y0kk:~/altera/12.0sp2/quartus/bin>
Quartus II jtag programmer is pointing to a 64bit dir, but how can I correct this to get the programmer working with the USB-Blaster into 32 bit operation ?
Kind Regards
