I am running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 64bit. I have followed the instructions here: 

 

http://www.altera.com/download/drivers/dri-usb_b-lnx.html 

 

I have set the QUARTUS_ROOTDIR path like this: 

 

export QUARTUS_ROOTDIR=/root/altera/13.0/qprogrammer 

 

Yet, I still get this error when browsing for the USB blaster 

 

"Error: QUARTUS_ROOTDIR is not set" 

 

 

What else can I try? 

 

Thanks.

For the sake of helping others, I started DS-5 like this from the same terminal. 

 

export QUARTUS_ROOTDIR=/home/altera/13.0sp1/qprogrammer 

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/home/altera/13.0sp1/qprogrammer/linux 

/home/altera/13.0sp1/embedded/ds-5/bin/eclipse & 

 

After this it worked.
