[Discuss-gnuradio] USB Issues

2006-01-09 Thread Michael Dickens
The primary issues right now are that (1) both the USRP and my fusb_darwin codes copy LIBUSB internals to get the job done (mine is very dependent right now, but I'll reduce that with re-programming some things); and (2) some LIBUSB calls are made directly, while others are through the USRP

On SUSE, wxPython is actually listed in YAST as python-wxGTK FYI. You still want to replace with wxPython-2.6.1.0 after you have done the initial YAST install since this makes sure you have all the stuff you need ;-). Good luck, Bob Geoffrey Bunza wrote: OK Bob, You've given enough gui

[Discuss-gnuradio] DBS_RX/USRP warmup stability

2006-01-09 Thread Marcus Leech
One of the things that's quite important to RA types is the stability of the receiving equipment over longish time periods--particularly over periods that are the same order of magnitude as the signals they're trying to observe. I happened to have shut down my USRP/DBS_RX stack today to do som

OK Bob, You've given enough guidance and encouragement that I'll bump my Suse priority up a notch. I've already found and adopted the baseline install-- it's a good approach. Thanks for the guidance. Geoff n4hy wrote: I have never once regretting changing over to SUSE. YAST is just too awes

I have never once regretting changing over to SUSE. YAST is just too awesome. I have gone ahead and installed gcc-4.0.2 on all my machines. You can use the python 2.4.1 that comes with SUSE 10. I have done python 2.4.2 but there are a few more roads to go down to get to the end if you do.

Eric, You are right on all counts. gcc4.0 worked just fine to compile Gnuradio. And I did try Suse10 on another system, and it installed like a dream compared to FC4 but I could not build with it right out of the box, so I've tabled the Suse investigation 'till later, while I continue on with
