Hi Alex
 
 
In fact, I'm using the sdr-widget-2012-10-22.elf which seems to be the
very last one on the googlecode repo
 
Which versions of the firmware is considered having the compatible Pid Vid
?
 
Anyhow, as soon as I have some spare time, I’ll follow Sid’s advices and
I’ll build the most recent version of the CLI & dsp servers

Marc,
 
You are using a new version of firmware with a different vid/pid that old
software cannot find unless they are modified.
 
So try to use old version firmware:
 
http://code.google.com/p/sdr-widget/downloads/detail?name=sdr-widget-2012-10-22.elf&can=2&q=
 
which has the traditional vid/pid .

But downgrading the firmware to adapt an old software version is not very elegant :- )) I'm not particularly tied to the "live" usb key version

 

I've followed Sid's advices  : a fresh and new kernel (64 bits this time), on a clean machine, then the installation of GHPSDR3-Alex strictly following build "readme" notes.

 

I've used the https://github.com/alexlee188/ghpsdr3-alex sources.

 

autoreconf -i

 

ran without problem.

 

But

 

./configure

 

hangs after a first "codec2" missing lib. Problem solved after compiling the lib (question allready documented on this ML)

 

But a new problem stops ./configure again. The script ask for Libevent2.0

 

Yet another question solved by Sid

http://groups.yahoo.com/group/softrock40/message/67370

but this "apt-get intall" solution don't work

 

I tried to install the lib this way

 

 

wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/levent/files/libevent/libevent-2.0/libevent-2.0.21-stable.tar.gz

tar zxvf libevent-2.0.21-stable.tar.gz

rm libevent-2.0.21-stable.tar.gz

cd libevent-2.0.21-stable

./configure

make

make clean

 

without any results. Still the same  error "The libevent-2.0 library and header file required to build ghpsdr3" during ./configure.

 

Where did I go wrong ?

These are all from the repo and installed via apt-get install or synaptic.
It looks like you are missing "libevent-dev".

As I said, Codec2 have been installed without problem (thanks to you :-) ), and libevent lib too, including the -dev one... it really is a version problem

 

dpkg -l |grep libevent

the error message is logical : wrong version installed

 

2.0-x don't seems to be in the sqeeze repo.

 

I'll try to git-clone it during the day

 

Marc

 

[f6itu]

Gotcha !

 

(via git clone/autoconf/configure/make/make install)

 

Next build error : the ortp Library an header file required to build ghpsdr3

 

at last, if I'm still not able to listen to my mobo with Linux, I learn how to fill my hard drive with cryptic libraries :-)

 

:-)

Marc (hope I will have the skin of ortp)

[f6itu]

Hi

Install codec2-dev not codec2, codec2 was superceded quite some time ago.
The repos are upgraded frequently but the latest versions always work.
# apt-cache search ortp
apt-utils - package managment related utility programs
libortp-dev - Real-time Transport Protocol stack
libortp8 - Real-time Transport Protocol stack
ubuntu-dev-tools - useful tools for Ubuntu developers

# dpkg -l|grep ortp
ii  libortp-dev                                3.3.2-4.1ubuntu1                           Real-time Transport Protocol stack

Hi Sid

 

I'm relaunching the .configure after installing the lib codec2-dev located on

 

https://freetel.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/freetel/codec2-dev codec2-dev

 

 I have no idea how to uninstall the former Codec2 lib and don't know how the GHPSDR3 configure script will handle that

 

I'm using a Debian 6.0.7 64 bits . No new version have been published since feb 23rd. No "unstable" repo have been added to the list. it seems that Libevent >1.4 is definitely not included by default in regular Debian squeeze repo. But installing it from git don't cause any problem

 

Anyhow, runing a "make" in the different subdirectories to create GHPSDR3 binaries ends with a bunch of errors

 

After installing the gtk development Tools that seems to be asked by the make, I still have many errors

 

 

I'm not sure if killing the debian and installing an Ubuntu will solve the problem. Too much installation understatement, too much prerequisite :- ))

Hi

Update

after installing libgs10-dev and running everything from scratch ( autoreconf –i /./configure /make all /make install ) and running "make" in each /trunk/src subdirectories, things seems to run smoothly without error  now (only warnings)

 

Binaries are (at last!) created in the "bin"folder (with root attribute, I've not yet chmoded or added any udev rule). I affraid I won't have enough time today.

 

Thks for your help

 

I'm beginning to understand some détails :- )

[Sid Boyce]

Good progress, "make install" will put the stuff bin to /usr/local/bin so you can just call them up by name without prefixing them with a path, i.e as
"softrock --iq --si570 --samplerate 96000 &"
"dspserver --share --lo 9000 --lookupcountry &"

Hi Sid

Make install sent me some insane words, but I'll have a look on it later, with the chmoding of the different binaries (everything has been compiled with root rights)

 

but it works : one proof

 

root@GHPSDR:/home/marc/ghpsdr3-alex/trunk/src/softrock# softrock --foobar
softrock: unrecognized option '--foobar'
invalid argument

        -s= or --samplerate

        -i= or --input (Port Audio device for input)
        -o= or --output (Port Audio device for output)
        --iq or --qi (to swap I and Q channels)
        --si570 (to use a unit having a Si570 oscillater)
        -v or --verbose
        -f= or --startupfreq (set Si570 startup frequency)
        -m= or --multiplier (set Si570 multiplier)
        --correctedfreq (set Si570 corrected frequency)
        --serialid
        --record filename (record to this file)

        --receivers (number of receivers)
        -j or --jack (use Jack Audio Connection Kit for audio in/out)
root@GHPSDR:/home/marc/ghpsdr3-alex/trunk/src/softrock# 

 

this stuff is alive. For real

 

Excepted my fileserver whitch is a "ready made" Openmediavault NAS package for nobrainers (installation is "return, return, return, logon"), I've never touch a unix-like system since Xenix 2.3.1 (allready a System V). Most Packet Radio hams where using Minix and my first uucp radio link -the one with Xenix- was running at the incredible speed of 300 bauds on a 386 machine with 3 MB of ramdisk and a crazy 80 MB Core (or Atasi) SCSI HVD hard drive

 

You cannot imagine the quantity of dust you have swept in my brain in less than 3 days :-) But I feel I'll never be a K&R pundit :-/

 

Tnks again.

 

I'm affraid I'll have to bug this ML again and again, this is just the beginning.

Hi

 

The Softrock binary seems to run, but dspserver fails

The physical soundcard is an SDR-Widget driving a mobo, configured in UAC2 DG8SAQ (not audio), last version of firmware.

 

(the script returns

getSoundcardId: HPSDR id=8
setSoundcard: 8
setSoundcard -41.000000 -48.000000)

 

hereafter the trace of softrock and dspserver exécutables

 

By default, port 8000 11000 12000 & 15000 are open on my router (upd and tcp... )

Hi Marc,

See the above.  Why is the process "Done"???

It should NOT be done.  It should be running when dspserver tries to connect.

Please start softrock in a separate terminal window (without the &) so that you can see the error messages.

Alex

[f6itu]

tnks Alex.

 

That was indeed my fault... I'm working via an ssh terminal and didn't think about this obvious reason. I'll check it asap

 

Meanwhile, I've tried to rebuild a new version of GHPSDR3 on a fresh Ubuntu kernel (and another computer)

 

I have a " QAudioFormat: No such file or directory'' error during the Make. I'm using Qt 4.8.3...

but I think it's more a "all purpose obscure error message" caused by a bad Library version than a real Qt error. I

 

Any idea ?

Hi

 

yet anonther compiling error

 

I probably crashed something during tests last night... nothing was working anymore. That's the reason I started from scratch, wiping the ghpsdr3-Alex directory and downloading/autoconf/configure/make all etc again

 

During the "make all" the debian install answers

 

rtlsdr_server-listener.o: In function `listener_thread(void*)':
/home/marc/ghpsdr3-alex/trunk/src/rtlsdr/listener.cpp:97: undefined reference to `rpl_malloc'

yesterday, everything was almost working, today, I'm on the verge of a binary suicide.

 

I'm beginning to remember why I stopped using Unix system some years ago  ;-)

Please post to the sdr-widget group for ghpsdr3-alex issues.

If you are on the verge of giving up you might like to install teamviewer software and ask Andrea to help you. You will give control of your PC to Andrea and he will install things for you.
