Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Errors using PyBombs recipe for RFNoC setup

2016-10-12 Thread Ethan Trewhitt
I can take the blame for this one. On apt-based machines that have python-apt installed, the new cache (that I added in #391) handles requests from PyBOMBS concerning the installation state of apt-based packages. Whenever a package is installed, the cache was not updated (bug). As a result, any tim

I have followed the following example, the only difference being: step 1) I didn't use tutorial as the name, step 2) I named my block qpsk_demod_cb instead of my_qpsk_demod_cb, which then meant in step 4 I used a different name, key, catetory, import, and make where I replaced tutorial and removed

I once had several mysterious issues with 16.04 and a custom shell-wrapped sudo installed by some IT guys to the point that I installed "stock" 16.04 and *not* the IT guys' provisioned stuff. After using the stock install *without* specially provisioned software things worked much better (like they

Hi Jason, I can see that sudo pecularities might break pybombs; however, replacing sudo with a script is a rather uncommon practice (you incurr a lot of problems, because scripts usually can't have the setuid bit etc); is that vanilla ubuntu 16.04 or what's happened there? Best regards, Marcus

Jason, did you try pip install --upgrade setuptools as a first step? Are you running on a special setup such as a patchwork virtual machine being served to you on a thinclient with f**ed permissions? Cheers, Nick M. On Wed, Oct 12, 2016 at 10:38 AM Jason Matusiak < ja...@gardettoengineering.com

Hi Jeon, Your use case is not what you'd use controlport for; I think you've got it right: use modtool to create a sync block, but set its number of in- and outputs to zero; override the start() method to spawn a new thread that contains a function which has a loop that executes the external comma
