It the starts with "Building UHD..." and exits with the error "UHD build apparently failed".

look at the script, so that you know how to enable debugging, and search if others have had this problem

btw maybe you installed some uhd support from the distro? (it is better not to install any radio-related stuff)

btw if you are using the newest version, then skip the 32-bit environment setup when building the codecs. they will work when compiled for 64-bits too.

thanks for the reply I will look in to this. Had some tries this morning but I think some prerequesets are missing.
I saw your last post about the codecs, you mentioned there that also suppport for the latest version of GNU-Radio is comming ? When do you expect this update will be availeble for the rest of the world ?

if you don't turn on debugging you will never know

yes, look at the test-3.7 branch. i've applied a patch from Antonio Eugenio Burriel to this tree. the 3.7 support is currently untested, as i'm on 3.6 everywhere. but it looks ok. development will continue in the master branch for now, but for the next major version 3.7 will be mandatory

3.6 to 3.7 migration

Assuming Gnuradio 3.6 to 3.7 migration is a mess . What would be the way to use the next telive version with 3.7 gnuradio ?

re format entire linux ?

I also get the UHD error, it look like the BARC installation script is broken.

I use the 'old" script that was saved on my other PC.

I copied the saved script to the new installation and this old script was working fine.

Yesterday I did not have the time to dive in to the problem. How 'old' is your 'old' script. On my VM I have a script I used 2 months ago to setup GNU-Radio or is your script much older ?

Can you share this script with me so I can compare or try it on my michine.

The installation with the old gnuradio script works.
After installing all other parts I get an error when starting the receiver.
./float_to_bits: error while loading shared libraries: libosmocore.so.4

In the libosmocore-sq5bpf I see a debian folder. Do I have to something with this folder (or its content ?)

Trying to install on Debian 7.8 x64

put /usr/local/lib in /etc/ld.so.conf and then:
sudo ldconfig

no

Upgrade to i7

Hey all,

Just upgraded to an i7 with 4GB Ram and comparing with my old i3 with 6GB Ram it is a world of difference.

Previously I could just about monitor 6 Channels on 2 Networks, this would go very choppy and break up quite a bit.

With the i7, I am so far able to monitor 9 channels on 3 networks without any breakups or anything, I am waiting on my HackRF Blue arriving in the next few weeks to be able to hopefully monitor more networks as my RTLSDR just isnt wide enough to cover all networks in the 10MHZ that the networks are spread over.

Just thought I would throw that in for anyone thats having issues with breakups etc.

This project the SQ5BPF has put together is top notch, thank you SQ5BPF!

you can always use multiple rtl-sdr sticks to cover more bandwidth. for example copy telive_6ch.grc to telive_6ch_2.grc, and modify the file sinks to write data to /tmp/fifo7 ... 13 (instead of /tmp/fifo1 ... 6), and modify the osmocom source to use the second dongle

this option should be much chaper than a hackrf, but the hackrf can also transmit, and that might be a bit more *FUN* :)

Thanks!

I have try hard to install this Telive Software but have not manage yet to get it up and running.
But one thing I will mention here is that lot off all the errors I get seems to have something to do with not installing the US English Version of Linux Destribution. When install the Linux Mint 17.1 US Version and run the above script it runs without errors.
Thanks for all the help in this Forum Special to SQ5BPF for all the efford he make in this.
I do understand that this is a Jungle for most users that is not familier to Linux.
I have now install GNU on several installation Ubuntu, Mint, Kali. etc. so there must be hope...
But I am sure I will get it to work some day.
