[Discuss-gnuradio] Roadmap

2006-11-30 Thread Dave hartzell
Hi, I've seen the roadmap on the trac website, which seems to list some short-term goals for the upcoming releases, but I'm wondering about what features we might expect to see from gnuradio in the more distant future (e.g. year time frames). I see there is work on radar, among other things...

[Discuss-gnuradio] SWIG 1.3.31 now required on the trunk

2006-11-30 Thread Eric Blossom
We've decided to require SWIG 1.3.31 to compile the trunk. We try to avoid upping the mininum rev level of any our dependencies, but this one's required for proper support of SWIG "directors". I believe that it also brings in support for Python 2.5, but I haven't tested that yet. Sorry for any

[Discuss-gnuradio] Alternative drivers for USRP

2006-11-30 Thread Lamar Owen
Ok, couple of questions: 1.) Has anyone done any work on an ALSA-compatible driver for the USRP? Something where some of the mixer controls could do tuning; where the sampling rate could select decimation factors, etc? 2.) If not, does anyone know how one might pipeline the GNUradio ALSA output

fusb_block_size is the size in bytes of the maximum transfer that we will ask the kernel to make to/from user-space. fusb_nblocks is the maximum number of transfers (of maximum size fusb_block_size) that we can have in flight at any given time. I think this is Linux-specific. The NetSBD
