OP25 op25 boatbod with gnuradio-3.10

[viggendriver]

Got tied up this weekend but I got things somewhat working but it seems to be choking on the NAC which is 0x3c2 for the system I've been using and it worked in the past. I tried leaving it empty with the same result

Did you make sure the parameters in trunk.tsv are separate by a single tab character?
Sometimes editors covert the tabs to spaces and this messes things up.

op25 boatbod with Ubuntu 22.04.2 -- gnuradio-3.10-- still Alpha test ?​

I was running op25 Ubuntu-18 and decided to upgrade to U-22.

I am having a snag with a fresh install of Ubuntu and op25, read the past posts and don't know what to do next.

"gru" is not part of gnuradio-3.10 so something either didn't build correctly, or possible there are left-over libraries from the earlier version.

I'd first perform an uninstall (cd ~/op25/build; sudo make uninstall) then take a look in /usr/local/lib and see if there are any remnants of op25 left around and delete them before rebuilding & reinstalling.

Boatbod, thank you for the response. On your advice, the reinstall was done.
I switched out the Airspy for RTL2838.

I then get these warnings and return to CLI.

I've not seen that message before. Presumably rx.py did not successfully start?
Was there anything in stderr.2?
What's your full startup script command line?

 

[code37f]

I looked at the rebuild command line and had many "no permission" to execute parts of the build into the sub-folders.

So I read up on permission for folders, re built op25 again and its working.

Audio is outstanding. Thanks for a great program.

 

[code37f]

I am now trying a op25-Boatbod install on Mint 21.1 laptop.

I get this far and:
git checkout gr310 says
Already on 'gr310'

so I continue with
:~/op25$ ./install.sh
and I get:
Installing for GNURadio 3.10 is not supported by this version of op25
Please use git branch "gr310" for GNURadio-3.10 or later.

How can that be, I am going in circles here!
Any ideas ?

run apt list | grep gnuradio-dev to check/verify the GNURadio version that will install on your Mint 21.1 laptop.

Mint 21.1 is an Ubuntu 22.04 derivative, so it *should* be gr-3.10, and indeed I do recall successfully using it in a virtual environment for compatibility testing. Must be something else going on...

Let's start with the basics:

cd ~/op25
git status

cat /etc/os-release
cat /etc/lsb-release

apt list | grep gnuradio-dev

When you tried the install.sh script, did you see anything on the screen that said "Identified GNURadio version ...."? If so, what was the version number?

@boatbod, I recall testing on Mint during GR310 development having had no problems then and decided
to spin up a fresh VM to make sure that nothing has changed. The install went well from the gr310 branch
as it did originally, everything working well.

When there are local changes to files in the repo this can prevent git from pulling in updates. I suggest you save anything important and then run the following:

cd ~/op25
git checkout .
git pull

Good news, op25 working fine with Mint21.1

I'm sure I threw in some operator error in the prior installation.

After 3 unsucessful installs, and seeing that the sub-folders didn't look complete,

I re-installed Build,Cmake, and then cloned Boatbod.( not sure if thats necessary , or if your branch handles all that).

Thank you boatbod

 

[ToTheBitCave]

Anyone else getting a “Illegal instruction (core dumped)” when trying to run rx.py? I installed 22.04 and updated everything first before pulling the gr310 branch and running ./install.sh. Everything seemed to compile just fine. The only thing in stderr.2 is “Using python /usr/bin/python3”

I’m tempted to downgrade back to 20.04 but I’m curious if gr3.10 has better performance? Is it worth it?

Performance is going to be very similar between gr-3.8 and gr-3.10.
I expect your op25 is core dumping because there are left over libraries built under the older os/older gnuradio. You're going to need to clean out from the /usr/local hieracy and then start with a fresh clone of the github repo.

sudo find /usr/local -name '*op25*' -exec rm -rf {} \;
sudo ldconfig

 

[maus92]

I'm attempting a new install on my low-end testing rig. I foolishly swapped in an AX210 wifi card, which while offers blazingly fast wifi, it is not supported by the kernel on the box's Mint 20 build. Thus I had to nuke that and install Mint 21.1 which looks like will require the gr310 branch?/build. Buckle up, lol.

 

[foxtail]

What is this low-end unit you speak of? I've got it running on an intel t5600 and t6570 cpu's. I did try raspberry pi-1 but it was way to slow for OP25.

I5-6600T. Linux is getting more bloated with each version upgrade. OP25 should run fine; SDR Trunk may have issues.

 

[maus92]

BTW, the i5-6600T is a 4 core - 4 thread 35W part that runs at 2.7G base and turbos to 3.5G. The test machine has 16GB of RAM. Over the past few days, the box has been running at roughly 50% usage on all 4 cores with SDRT 0.6 Alpha 6 (Linux) to monitor a busy-ish 8 channel, 14 talk path Phase 2 simulcast site. IMO, this is about the most loading I would be comfortable with before considering a move to a more powerful machine. I hope to compare to OP25 later today, depending on my "assignments" (ahem.)
