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 .

    Hi Sid

    is the Objective Development " V-USB" mandatory ?

    I'm affraid I'm unable to compile such sources without any n00b-base
    Configure file or ready-made package and clear instructions. My knowledge
    of Gnu kernels is almost equivalent to the inverse of infinity (apt-get
    install : ok, ./configure-make-make install : ok. More than that and I'm
    lost. I don't even master simple commands like wget in certain cases)
     
    >Looks like settings are wrong or audio-widget firmware loaded.
     
    This has been checked many times... I don't think so
     
    I'm unable to run widget-control under my unbuntu station (the python
    script ends with errors and don't see the widget), but under the Lubuntu
    "live GHPSDR3-Alex" version (http://napan.ca/ghpsdr3/index.php/Ghpsdr3-usb)
    the configuration is OK, the widget is "seen" and responding (attached
    screen capture).
     
    btw : how do you run widget-control in character mode ?
     
    I never had any problem flashing the firmware under Windows, the widget is
    NOT in audio mode, the Si570 is perfectly responding, filters are normaly
    switched depending of the crossover table.
     
    it seems that the only conflict is between the Libusb and the audio part of
    the widget

    ****Check if your DAC is cs4344 or es9022 **** as I am not sure which is
    used in the latest Widget.
    Mine is an older Widget with the cs4344.
     
    The widget.hex code is the latest and widget-control is a 64-bit binary.
    The command below will say what how it's currently set up.
    # ./widget-control -g
    10 37 widget uac2_dg8saq normal normal ak5394a cs4344
     
    This sets up the above parameters.
    # ./widget-control -s 8 27 widget uac2_dg8saq normal normal ak5394a cs4344
     
    See what you get from the commands below.
    root@sdrbox1:/opt/quisk-3.6.8/softrock# widget-control -g
    10 37 widget uac2_dg8saq normal normal ak5394a cs4344
    root@sdrbox1:/opt/quisk-3.6.8/softrock# widget-control --help
    usage: sudo ./widget-control [options] [values]
    options: -d = print the default feature values.
    -g = get the feature values from the widget nvram.
    -l = list the possible feature values.
    -m = get the feature values from the widget ram.
    -r = reboot the widget.
    -s = set the feature values in the widget nvram.
    Only -s takes values, in the form printed by -d or -g or -m.
    The acceptable values for each feature are listed by -l.
    The major and minor version numbers are optional to -s, but
    if provided they must match the ones printed by -d, -g, -l, and -m,
    which must all match each other, or your widget-control is out of
    sync with your widget.
