Re: Issue with UHD and GNUradio

[Marcus Müller]

Hi James,

as I just commented somewhere on the internet [1] (was that you? Hi :) !), unless you really have a reason to use more modern version of UHD, you would use an image that fits the UHD host side, and not the other way around.

Assuming you do have a specific need for a specific version of UHD: So, you need to have a GNU Radio that was *build* against the right version of UHD. You can't "change GNU Radio" after it's been built to work with an incompatible version of UHD!

Sadly, you did not mention how you installed your UHD and your GNU Radio – a bit hard to help you like that! But, as a rule of thumb: If you're already in the process of changing parts of your software infrastructure, it's a good point in time to update your Ubuntu to at least 22.04 LTS.

Which version of UHD do you need? How did you install that version?

Best regards,
Marcus

Hello, I need to use the latest version of UHD to work with my USRP image. The version that comes with GNUradio will not work as it is not updated. I have the latest version of UHD installed on my computer, but when installing GNUradio it installs and uses the outdated and incompatible version of UHD. How can I change GNUradio to use the version of UHD installed on my computer? I am running Ubuntu 20 and was originally following the instructions sent by Ettus Research attached to this email.

If you need any more information, please ask and thank you.
