You are using ubuntu 14.4 which has a new kernel. It will take us a little while to get our kernel module working with it. In the mean time, going to an older kernel or distribution will fix it. This does not affect ethernet connections.

I have my new x300's. The NI ExpressCard-8360B is recognized by my Intel 5, Lenovo, 64 bit machine running U 14.04 LTS.

I naively assumed that given the way things had gone before, that this would be a low impact out of the box experience. uhd_find_devices finds nothing.

So I go and dig and find I need to do some things first.

The installer:
sudo niusrprio-installer/INSTALL
appears to work, but something is missing still.

Unfortunately, the enabling and disabling usage lines don't work because some module the device is looking for has NOT been added to the kernel, much less done with automated update for the next kernel.

Anyone who has faced and solved this issue, and gotten their PCIe interface to the x300 to work, please email, because I cannot afford to waste the weekend looking at TV.
