Given your good results, I will attempt to duplicate them
and report back. Vielen Dank.

Quartus II V3.0 SP2 is running full compilations here on SuSE Linux 8.1.
quartus_map error is gone.

Thanks Charles and someguy@Altera.

I may surplus my win2k box :)

Just tested it on SuSE 9.0 and the problem is gone here too.

Unfortunately it will not run on x86-64:

  $cat /etc/SuSE-release 
  SuSE Linux 8.2 (x86-64)
  VERSION = 8.2
  
  $/net/sciraid2/raid2/home/local-linux-x86/altera/quartus2-3.0sp2/bin/quartus_sh
  Unknown Linux processor
  MWARCH: Undefined variable.
  MWCURRENT_LIBPATH: Undefined variable.

It might be possible to modify the script (qenv.csh) to think that
it's running on a plain x86. Tools from Synopsys, Cadence, and even
Xilinx ISE 6.1i runs on this machine.

As for using csh I would like quote Linus:

The only way tcsh "rocks" is when the rocks are attached to its feet
in the deepest part of a very deep lake.            (Linus Torvalds)
