I need a bit of help to understand how to run legacy prebuilt UHD versions from
the files.ettus.com/binaries/uhd <http://files.ettus.com/binaries/uhd>
repository.
I would like to try various UHD versions to try to find a version that will run
with an elderly (Rev 2) N210 with unknown firmware/fpga images in it. After
downloading a legacy version, e.g.,
uhd_003.004.000-release_Ubuntu-11.10-x86_64.deb, and clicking “install” I am
not understanding what I need to do next to actually run the version, as
uhd_usrp_probe —version reports the version of UHD that I originally had
installed, not the legacy version I intended to install.
I am running Ubuntu 18.04, should I expect to be able to run the legacy
versions labeled, for example, *_Ubuntu-11.10-x86_64.deb, as in the example
above ?
Clearly I’m missing something fundamental, and likely simple, in my
understanding about how to use these prebuilt older versions. I have had no
problem building, installing, and running UHD versions from source but I have
never tried to run a “prebuilt” version before.
