Qsys IP Search Path disappears

I have a fresh installation of Quartus II 11.0sp1 on Ubuntu 11.04 64-bit. 

 

I'm trying to migrate my current design (10.1sp1 SOPC Builder) to Qsys. However, I can't get Qsys to retain the IP Search Path. I'll enter the path and it refreshes the system resulting in no errors, but the Qsys System Contents tab only has a clock in it. If I open Tools -> Options again, the IP Search Path is empty. 

 

Anyone else encounter anything like this?

Okay, I figured this one out. 

 

I installed Quartus on this machine to the /opt directory using sudo. It created a .altera.quartus file at my user root directory but it was owned by root and part of the root group, thus I didn't have permissions to write to the files in that directory. Quartus must use the quartus2.ini and quartus2.qreg files in that directory to store state information. 

 

I chown'd the folder and files and the problem is solved.

I can't understand your way to fix this Problem. Can you, or anybody else, explain what I musst change on my System to solve this Problem. Actually I start Quartus as Admin an I can Change the " IP search path".
