The debian package configures rtl-sdr with -DDETACH_KERNEL_DRIVER=ON -DENABLE_ZEROCOPY=ON -DINSTALL_UDEV_RULES=ON And yes, I did not feel that the README was useful enough to ship. But Debian policy likes man pages, so the man page I prepared for rtl-sdr does refer to the wiki URL in the SEE ALSO section. Thanks for your interest in rtl-sdr. It can be a lot of fun. And Debian is a good way to use such devices. Other Debian packages might be of interest... $ apt-cache rdepends librtlsdr0 librtlsdr0 Reverse Depends: rtl-433 welle.io svxlink-server svxlink-calibration-tools remotetrx soapysdr0.7-module-rtlsdr sdrangelove rtl-sdr librtlsdr-dev libgnuradio-osmosdr0.1.4 ... that last providing rtl-sdr blocks for gnuradio and, gqrx-sdr can use rtl-sdr via gnuradio or soapy modules. I hope you find it actually just works for you. (If not, then there is a real bug.) -Maitland
