[Discuss-gnuradio] USB Hub with software controllable power supply for SDR

2014-05-06 Thread Vanush Vaswani
Hi all, I'm looking for a USB hub that allows software control of each port. I have a FunCube Dongle Pro+ trying to pick up satellite signals; but as the dongle is plugged in continously, I believe it heats up and degrades SNR. Let me know if you can think of any solutions Vanush

I'll reinforce what Sylvain said.   Likely an out-of-memory issue.  Add more physical memory (like at least double), or add more swap space, so that GCC   doesn't run out of virtual memory while compiling SWIG output.  This is a known problem that we can't do anything about--GCC works the way it wo

I don't know about that specific error, but any build that takes more than about 3 hours means that the even if successful, will yield an actual signal-processing   environment that has very poor performance except at very low sample rates.   What is your OS environment? Hardware?  Memory?  CPU?

Ok, yeah, I think I've figured out the problem. They completely changed the ICE package config files and the location of the libraries in 14.04.
