In fact, you should join it even if you’re not experiencing problems. But there are a few threads about the subject on the FPGA Design Tools forum on the Intel Community Forum (formerly Altera Forum).Īnother option is to make a post in VHDLwhiz’ private Facebook group: VHDL for FPGA Engineers. Ubuntu is officially unsupported by Intel, so there’s no point in asking them. Output from the diff between ‘vco’ and ‘vco_original’
# Download the old 32-bit version of libfreetype Sudo apt install gcc-multilib g++-multilib lib32z1 \ # Download the 32-bit libraries and build essentials ~/intelFPGA/*.*/modelsim_ase/vco_original # Check that the correct lines have changed Sed -i '/dir=`dirname "$arg0"`/a export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$/lib32' \ # Edit the vco script manually, or with these commands: (cd ~/intelFPGA/*.*/modelsim_ase/ & cp vco vco_original) # Start with ModelSimSetup-*-linux in your home directoryĬhmod u+w ~/intelFPGA/*.*/modelsim_ase/vco These are the commands for making ModelSim work in Ubuntu 20.04 Select the ModelSim-Intel FPGA Edition (includes Starter Edition) option, as shown in the image below. Go to Intel’s Download Center for FPGAs to obtain the installer.Ĭhoose the Lite Edition for Linux, and click the Individual Files tab on the same page. Where to download the ModelSim-Intel FPGA Edition for Linux For reference, I followed the procedure from PrieureDeSion’s GitHub gist, with a few changes to make it work with Ubuntu 20.04. The video below shows how I did it on a fresh Ubuntu 20.04 virtual machine. The software is available for both Windows and Linux, but Intel only supports Red Hat-based distros like CentOS Linux.įortunately, you are just a few hacks away from ModelSim working nicely on your Ubuntu box.
The ModelSim version that comes with Intel Quartus Prime Lite Edition is a good alternative if you want to try out VHDL simulation on your home computer.
