[Note: The reason I'm posting this here is because I'm not sure whether this is
solely a UHD problem or perhaps because of some 'suboptimal'
communication between GNURadio & UHD, and I've seen some earlier
posts on this list resolving UHD-related issues.If this is off-topic and does not belong here, I apologize!]
Dear all,
I've been working with GNURadio &
UHD/USRP for quite some time now. All of a sudden I started seeing the
following messages when running my flowgraph, on which I couldn't find
any info:
UHD Warning:
No revision detected MB EEPROM must be reprogrammed!
At
the time I was using UHD 3.9. Anyhow, a colleague told me that he also
used to have problems with too new versions of UHD, but that those
disappeared as he started to use UHD 003.008.005. So I erased all traces
of GNURadio & UHD and reinstalled from scratch using the
build-gnuradio script, now specifying that I want UHD version
003.008.005 installed. Furthermore, I ran the usrp_x3xx_fpga_burner tool
to rewrite the EEPROM of the X300. Now, when I wish to run my GNURadio
flowgraph, I get the following return messages:
linux; GNU C++ version 4.8.4; Boost_105400; UHD_003.008.005-0-g7efbd15b
-- X300 initialization sequence...
-- Determining maximum frame size... 8000 bytes.
-- Setup basic communication...
-- Loading values from EEPROM...
-- Setup RF frontend clocking...
UHD Warning:
No revision detected MB EEPROM must be reprogrammed!
UHD Warning:
Defaulting to X300 RevD Clock Settings. This will result in non-optimal lock times.

Did
anyone else experience the same problems? Can I not use UHD 003.008.005
with the X300? I'm assuming that something weird happened during the
installation as the board revision number is so odd..
I'm using an USRP X300 with a UBX-160 daughterboard, connected over 10Gb ethernet. Gnuradio version: 3.7.7.2. My system is 64bit Ubuntu 14.04.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Kind regards,
Mat
