Re: CubicSDR vs Console

I found CubicSDR a nightmare to install on Lubuntu. Maybe half a year ago or longer; perhaps it is easier these days, I don't know.

SDRuno on Linux

I got an RSP1 a while back, and only with great difficulty managed to get CubicSDR running. It was so difficult I put it on a flash drive with Lubuntu rather than trying to get it working on my main Linux laptop (which I didn't want to break with all the experimenting necessary). I want to make an a...

Re: Missing the big picture

OK after backing up and fooling around including rebooting, and installing pulseaudio, and just learning how CubicSDR worked some more, I now have it working. Not sure what combination got things going but I'm set. I have to say this was the most difficult process I've done to get some hardware runn...

Re: Missing the big picture

Also I noticed inside CubicSDR there was no device shown.

Re: Missing the big picture

OK, finally getting somewhere. Got CubicSDR built. I plugged in sdrplay and ran the probe: paul@sdr:~/sdr/CubicSDR/build$ SoapySDRUtil --probe=sdrplay ###################################################### ## Soapy SDR -- the SDR abstraction library ##################################################...

Re: Missing the big picture

Perhaps you want the error messages! The first error about opengl: CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake-3.2/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:138 (message): Could NOT find OpenGL (missing: OPENGL_gl_LIBRARY OPENGL_INCLUDE_DIR) Call Stack (most recent call first): /usr/share/cmake-3.2/Modules/Fi...

Re: Missing the big picture

OK, so invoking SoapySDRUtil at that point was wrong. I built SoapySDRPlay. It generated several warnings about uninitialized or unused variables. :roll: But anyway when done SoapySDRUtil then worked as predicted. Then I tried your recipe to generate CubicSDR. That first "make" should be "cmake" by ...

Re: Missing the big picture

Are you telling me to ignore the errors??

I was intending to build sdrsoapyplay, just as soon as I got done with sdrsoapy first. There seems no point in going on until I deal with these errors.

Re: Missing the big picture

OK. I started from scratch because I didn't know the state of my previous try, installing lubuntu 15.10 on a flash drive, and then following the various recipes, starting with this one: https://github.com/pothosware/SoapySDR/wiki/BuildGuide Everything was good until the cmake step for SoapySDR - Dox...

Re: Missing the big picture

I tried to build CubicSDR. Got half done and then I started getting many undefined references on the link steps. Not sure what is missing; the error messages are too obscure for me. I guess I will throw my SDRplay device in a box and hope somebody builds a package for it some day. That, or see if th...
