Hi All;

 

Well I picked up my new system at Best Buy. (details later) I installed Ubuntu 9.10 and Gnuradio from the git.

I must have made a typo somewhere because I get the following error when I probe the USRP1:

 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

address@hidden:/usr/local/bin$ usrp_probe

 

usrp_open_interface:usb_claim_interface: failed interface 0

could not claim interface 0:

Operation not permitted

open_nth_cmd_interface: open_cmd_interface failed

usrp: failed to load firmware /usr/local/share/usrp/rev4/std.ihx.

 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

Could it be a typo when I was adding the “usrp” group ??

 

Bill

It's almost certainly the case that one of the following wasn't done properly:

    o adding group "usrp"
    o adding your own userid to that group
    o configuring "udev" so that the device is in group "usrp"
