Quartus Web Edition (Free) 13.0.1 Build 232 Linux Browser No Opening

[FPGANovice]

I have installed Quartus Web Edition (Free) 13.0.1 Build 232 for Linux on Ubuntu 20.04.2 LTS. 

Selecting 'Open interactive tutorial' from the initial modular window does nothing.

I closed the window and selected 'Options' from the 'Tools' drop-down. Entering '/lib/firefox/firefox.sh' into the Web Browser field in 'Internet connectivity. 

Closing the application and re-loading still produced no result when selecting the 'Open interactive tutorial' option.

What I am doing wrong, please?

Hi,

Are you sure the path for Firefox is correct? Shouldn't it have a parent folder before lib, resulting into something like "/usr/lib/firefox/firefox.sh"? Or maybe "../lib/firefox/firefox.sh" Try searching for the firefox.sh file and copy the path into the Options tool.

You could also change to a different browser, or reinstall Quartus.

Hi Nurina,

Changing browsers (chromium) helped.  But the page just shows a blue band at the top of the browser which flickers at am alarming rate.

At that point, I gave up and used YouTube instead.

kindest regards,
