Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] New guy having troubles

Will give that a try. I haven't messed with the default swap settings which is set at 1GB, anxiously awaiting another 1GB stick one was bad when I got the comp causing a video problem. Watching on the system monitor it would eventually >90% on memory and swap with <5% on the CPU's. Will give it another try with more mem.
Thanks,
Austin

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 works.

Hello,
Sorry should have included those details. Ubuntu 12.04 running on a Dell d620 laptop, 2Ghz core2 with 1Gb ram.
Purposely running that version because some add ons were confirmed to work with it and it's not the absolute latest and greatest hardware.
Thanks,
Austin

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?

Hello all,
Working through a reintroduction to Linux and Gnu-radio and coming into some trouble. Have tried a couple of different package install scripts that would run, get to building GNU radio, eventually eat up the system resources and fail to build >12 hours. Did try doing a build manually as per instructions and this is where it dropped dead, gave up after 2 hours and stopped it here.

Sorry if this may be a bit disorderly or such getting reintroduced to the process. but any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Austin
