Compiling Altera Libraries for Modelsim DE

One thing I do rarely is compile Altera libraries for simulation, and when I have to it involves web searching.  Anyway, now it is appearing here so I don't have to think about it anymore

This example compiles the altera_mf.v file into a library.  Update the path accordingly, as of this moment I am using quartus 11.1.  The main thing is paying attention to where altera_mf.v can be found


vlib altera_mf_ver
vmap altera_mf_ver altera_mf_ver
vlog -work altera_mf_ver C:/altera/11.1/quartus/eda/sim_lib/altera_mf.v

Juniper VPN, Network Connect, and Linux

I need to use Juniper VPN and Network Connect to remote to my work's network.  Network Connect chooses to use 32-bit java, which upsets most 64-bit systems.  Don't worry, it won't actually tell you this, it will just crash randomly

The following forum solved most of my issues.  Basically you are installing a 32-bit browser with a 32-bit java plugin, after which Network Connect will well, connect
