Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Is there a way to get already programmed blocks?

Ok I followed the instructions for installing gnuradio on https://github.com/Nuand/bladeRF/wiki/Getting-Started%3A-Linux. The commands go as follows.

$ mkdir -p ~/sandbox/gnuradio-builds $ cd ~/sandbox/gnuradio-builds $ wget http://www.sbrac.org/files/build-gnuradio $ chmod +x ./build-gnuradio $ ./build-gnuradio -m prereqs gitfetch

$ cd ~/sandbox/gnuradio-builds/gnuradio/ $ git checkout -b git-v3.7.1 v3.7.1 $ mkdir build $ cd build $ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/gnuradio-3.7.1git ../ $ make && sudo make install

$sudo kwrite /etc/profile.d/gnuradio.sh

Put the following in the created file:

#!/bin/bash # Add GNU Radio binaries to the search path export PATH=$PATH:/opt/gnuradio-3.7.1git/bin # Add GNU Radio python libraries to python search path if [ $PYTHONPATH ]; then export PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:/opt/gnuradio-3.7.1git/lib/python2.7/dist-packages else export PYTHONPATH=/opt/gnuradio-3.7.1git/lib/python2.7/dist-packages fi

$sudo kwrite /etc/ld.so.conf.d/gnuradio.conf

Put the following in the created file:

/opt/gnuradio-3.7.1git/lib

$ sudo ldconfig -v | grep gnuradio

Now for Osmosdr

$ cd ~/sandbox/gnuradio-builds/gr-osmosdr $ mkdir build $ cd build $ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt/gnuradio-3.7.1git ../ $ make && sudo make install && sudo ldconfig


These are the steps I followed, I'm not sure why the QT and WX blocks don't appear. I saw that somebody sent in a concern about QT being disabled because gnuradio only runs on versions qt4.40-4.8.4.
So I installed version qt4.8.4 and changed the system default to be 4.8.4 instead of 5.0.1. Unfortunately this did not help my situation. Any further suggestions?

Regards,

Michael A. Horvat

Michael,

there's no reason the QT blocks should vanish when you install osmo.
Can you detail the steps of how you installed GR, and then osmo.
