===== Install Quartus 18.1 and Matlab ===== This description assumes that version 13.0sp1 is already installed on Lubuntu 18.04. The Quartus 18.1 version is used only by the Master Course. ==== Download ==== Download [[https://www.hs-augsburg.de/~beckmanf/restricted/Quartus-lite-18.1.0.625-linux.tar|Quartus-lite-18.1.0.625-linux.tar]] from [[http://fpgasoftware.intel.com/?edition=lite|Intel]]. You can download with cd cd cae wget --user=YOURUSERNAME --ask-password https://www.hs-augsburg.de/~beckmanf/restricted/Quartus-lite-18.1.0.625-linux.tar ==== Install ==== Check that you have * [[http://www.hs-augsburg.de/homes/beckmanf/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=ubuntu_virtual_cae_system#missing_libpng12|Installed the missing libpng12]] Make sure that you install the software at "/opt/altera/18.1". When you run the installation, you can deselect all FPGA device families, except Cyclone V. tar -xvf Quartus-lite-18.1.0.625-linux.tar ./setup.sh Check that you have * [[http://www.hs-augsburg.de/homes/beckmanf/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=ubuntu_virtual_cae_system#fix_the_libfreetype_problem|Compiled the libfreetype library]] and copy the library to the 18.1 directory mkdir /opt/altera/18.1/modelsim_ase/lib32 cp ~/cae/freetype-2.8.1/objs/.libs/libfreetype.so* /opt/altera/18.1/modelsim_ase/lib32/ Change /opt/altera/18.1/modelsim_ase/vco file and find the location: dir=`dirname "$arg0"` After that line add export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/altera/18.1/modelsim_ase/lib32 and [[http://www.hs-augsburg.de/homes/beckmanf/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=ubuntu_virtual_cae_system#fix_linux_rh60_vco_script_problem|Fix linux rh60 problem]] in that file. === libstdc++ CXXABI_1.3.9 problem === The following problem /opt/altera/version/quartus/linux64/libstdc++.so.6: version `CXXABI_1.3.9' not found (required by /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libproxy.so.1) Failed to load module: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/gio/modules/libgiolibproxy.so is due to different libstdc++ versions which have different ABI versions. If you delete rm /opt/altera/18.1/quartus/linux64/libstdc++.* then quartus will find the default libstdc++ in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu. ==== Create a version switcher for the PATH variable ==== You can set the PATH variable as in the 13.0sp1 installation in .profile. If you install two versions, then you can append the following to .bashrc alias v13="ln -rsvfT /opt/altera/13.0sp1 /opt/altera/version" alias v18="ln -rsvfT /opt/altera/18.1 /opt/altera/version" You need to open a new bash to make the changes active. Then you can switch between the versions by running v18 or v13. ===== Matlab ===== ==== License and Activation ==== Students of Hochschule Augsburg can have a [[https://www.hs-augsburg.de/Rechenzentrum/Matlab-TAH-Lizenz.html|license]] but they need to [[https://de.mathworks.com|Create a student account at Mathworks]]. You must use your hs-augsburg.de email address. ==== Download ==== Download Matlab version R2018b from https://de.mathworks.com/downloads/web_downloads/ ==== Install ==== cd cd cae mkdir matlab mv ../Downloads/matlab_R2018b_glnxa64.zip matlab cd matlab unzip matlab_R2018b_glnxa64.zip sudo mkdir /opt/matlab sudo chown caeuser:caeuser /opt/matlab ./install During the installation process you have to login to Mathworks and activate the license. Choose as installation directory: /opt/matlab/R2018b Select the following matlab toolboxes * MATLAB 9.5 * Simulink 9.2 * DSP System Toolbox * Filter Design HDL Coder * Fixed-Point Designer * HDL Coder * MATLAB Coder * Signal Processing Toolbox === PATH ===
