Thanks Marcus, I also thought the same thing.  Just to be safe I had run the 
uhd_usrp_probe call with the default settings before trying the suggestions 
from Josh.

Josh thanks so much for the suggestion.

        uhd_usrp_probe --args call for setting the frame size and number
        of frames.

        getting overruns still.  I also tried setting it higher to

        testing on the older gnuradio libusrp 4 channel version and
        ubuntu 10.04 for longer durations. It gives no overruns up until
        about 30 minutes of running.  This is at least usable. I wonder
        if the buffer settings on the older setup is higher then newer
        one.  I'm not sure how to determine this.

The frame size and number of frames settings are per-session, so setting them 
in uhd_usrp_probe will have no effect, as far as I know, on
  future sessions.
