FIR Compiler II ... Finish button grey-shaded

Hi, 

 

I got a really silly problem. I have a Quartus Subscription Edition license for Linux and I try to generate a FIR filter with the Altera FIR compiler II but no matter what I do the Finish button us always grey-shaded and so I cannot generate the core. I experienced the problem with Quartus version 10.0 and so I downloaded version 11.0, hoping that it would not show the same behaviour but it did :( . Maybe somebody got a hint what might be missing? 

 

Besides messing with all the core parameters I tried with activating OpenCore plus Evaluation but this did not help. 

 

Best regards,

that's odd. so when you first open the core the Finish button is greyed out? i just tried on Linux 11.0 and it works fine, i've used it in the past on Linux and Windows 

 

what distro are you using?

Yes, the finish button is always grey. My distro is OpenSuse 11.3. Another thing that I don't understand is that in the Input/Output Options page the Output Bit Widths do not change when I change the Input Bit Width ... I guess the output width should depend on the input width so maybe this is an indication that the whole plug-in is somehow broken on my machine.

my output widths change when i change the input width. i'm using CentOS 5.4 

 

if you launch quartus from a command line, do you get any output to the terminal after opening the FIR II MegaWizard?
