Running the .apps but I can't tell if it's working or if something is wrong

[NewbieX]

I'm new to linux and gnu radio (yes, I'm a newbie).... that being said...

On a fresh Ubuntu 12.04 LTS w/ GNURadio/UHD installed... 
... with a USRP N210 connected (works with GNURadio e.g. uhd_fft)

$ uhd_find_devices
linux; GNU C++ version 4.6.3; Boost_104800; UHD_003.005.003-76-ge0cbc2c1

--------------------------------------------------
-- UHD Device 0
--------------------------------------------------
Device Address:
    type: usrp2
    addr: 192.168.10.13


I followed the directions here https://github.com/flexnets/aloe/wiki (ALOE 0.6)...

When I run osld.app using the default config, nothing happens (see below):

/aloe-0.6$ sudo ./build/rtdal_lnx/runcf ./osld.app ./config
linux; GNU C++ version 4.6.3; Boost_104800; UHD_003.005.003-76-ge0cbc2c1

When I run osld.app using a config that enables the usrp, nothing happens (see below):

What I should expect?  Is it transmitting and I just don't know unless I get a spectrum analyzer? 


Thank you!

Hi kevin, 

What machine do you have? 32 or 64 bit? Did you modify something on the default config or osld.app files?

I did not modify the default config.  For the 2nd test, I copied the default config to config_usrp and set enable_usrp=true;

Thanks,

Kevin

hi, 

While trying different compiler optimization options I got a similar behavior than yours. That could be the problem. Please try building cmake with debugging options. From the source tree:

mkdir debug

cd debug

cmake ../ -DDEBUG=1

cd ..

sudo debug/rtdal_lnx/runcf ./osld.app ./config

kind regards,

Ismael

Thank you Ismael

I did as you instructed (and did a 'make' before the 'cd..')  and now It seems to be running!  I'll play around with it now.  Thank's again.

Kevin
