Okay, this output looks better - it appears you now have the libraries
installed.
I don't understand the output
Board ID Number: 2
If you have more then 1 board installed, unplug all the boards except
for 1 board.
To run multiple boards you need to use serial numbers - but you need to
get hackrf_info working correctly.
Type
groups | grep plugdev
If it doesn't print anything, you need to add yourself to the group
plugdev.
To do that use
sudo usermod -a -G plugdev <userid>
where <userid> is your login name.
Then logout and then login again and type
groups
and you should see an entry for plugdev.
And then run
hackrf_info
-- Cinaed

Hello GNURadio Community,
I designed an FM receiver in Gnuradio-Companion to receive an FM
broadcast signal from the Hackrf One. I am running Gnuradio-Companion
3.9 on Ubuntu 20.04 inside VirtualBox 6.1. I installed the Hackrf
software on Ubuntu and set VirtualBox USB port to see the Scott Gadget
Hackrf One. Problem is: when I execute the command "hackrf_info" in
the Ubuntu Terminal, it reads the Board ID, Firmware Version, and Part
Number, but says the hackrf_info version and libhackrf version are
"unknown". This is a snapshot of the terminal response from executing
the hackrf_info query:

I cannot find any info online to solve this problem (allow the
Terminal query “hackrf_info” to return all the board information). As
a result when I run the GRC flow graph, it fails because it cannot
open hackrf. I would appreciate any suggestions.
Thank you!
George
