the Xilinx or Altera versions should work for the Verilog class labs,

projects) >and thus you should use the 6.3g from Altera or the new one

Does Xilinx have a Linux version?

Kirk-

 

Yes, Xilinx has a Linux version of ModelSim available if you pay for a
regular license.  The free Starter version is limited to 32-bit Windows
XP platforms.

 

I agree, that if you are working with Altera parts you should use their
suite of tools (ModelSim included). Currently HPSDR designs are using
Altera parts, but in the future someone may come up with a HPSDR project
utilizing Xilinx parts, in which case the Xilinx toolset will be
appropriate.
