Greetings list,
I have hardly ever used gnuradio. But I want to use it for the usrp2_fft.py to use as a sort of spectrum analyzer. I installed gnuradio with the script created by Marcus Leech for ubuntu.
Upon running "usrp2_fft.py -f 2.45e9 -d 16 -g 20" I get a whole list of errors at the bottom of which is
RuntimeError: NO USRPs found on interface eth0
The line before the Traceback (most recent call last): reads
eth0: socket: Operation not permitted
I ran sudo chmod +s /usr/bin/usrp2_socket_opener as posted in response to one of the previous queries but I still get the same error. The thing is that the device is actually connected on the eth1 interface. So if I run the same command with an additional -e eth1 it's the same error again except for the eth1.
I have Ubuntu 11 on my machine. It has the latest gnuradio and UHD installed from the script and the latest Firmware and FPGA images. The hardware I am using is a USRP2-Rev4 with RFX2400 daughterboard. The problems I described above, I am facing on another machine that has the exact same setup except for Ubuntu 10 instead of 11.
Another question is, the build_gnuradio script asks you to set your PYTHONPATH to /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages. Which I did, but I was getting errors like
from gnuradio import usrp2
ImportError: cannot import name usrp2
I have made sure that the packages are installed by running dpkg --get-selections | grep gnuradio and it shows me the python-gnuradio-usrp2 package as installed.
I found that after exporting the PYTHONPATH to /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages instead, it runs but gives me the error above. But each new terminal I open, I have to run that export command. Is there a permanent solution ? Should I add the line export PYTHONPATH=/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages to the /etc/ld.so.conf file.
Sorry if this question is too basic, I am not too experienced on linux.
Best Regards,
Sanat
