I don't know.  Altera has generally required talkback to be enabled
when using the free version of the tools and targeting any of the
"complex" FPGA families (SoC+FPGA or the parts with high-speed
transceivers) but they may have changed things with 17.1.

I suspect you'll still need to enable talkback, but it may require a
different method.  I haven't worked with 17.1 yet even on my main
Windows development system, much less in a Docker VM.

NOTE: IIRC, when I was trying to get 15.1 working as a Docker image,
the "official" way to enable talkback required running a GUI and
clicking some buttons which was pretty hard to do from within the
Docker build.  I tracked down what was happening behind the scenes,
and managed to get the tb2_install program to do what I needed without
requiring user input.  You will likely have to figure this out
yourself if you're wanting to make a Docker image, or just run the
Quartus GUI and enable talkback if you're working with a "regular" system.
