Looks great! 
Did you already publish the code?
I moved my software to wayland, and can support two screens on the pi 5.

Hi Paul and others,

The code is present in the repo so free to use.

I have attached a document radioberry@pi-5 .

In stead of building the software yourself i provide an image you can sell at https://pa3gsb.gumroad.com/l/radioberry

The image is for now only CL025 but i will do the same for the CL016..

Enjoy

Thanks,
I tried to build the pio driver but had an issue 

KBUILD_EXTRA_SYMBOLS := /home/pi/git/rp1-driver/Module.symvers

This directory is not found.

Paul you are exactly pointed to the issues why i decided to make an image.

As indicated in the attached document:

To build your own setup is pretty hard; the problem you are facing that i have described in the research paper;  i did a PR (Pull Request) to the linux kernel for a modification which is needed when using the rp1-pio driver as a basis for the radioberry driver.

Making a description is not that easy with a lot of individual issues and problems. When the development stabilize i will look into it again.

Iam willing to help everybody but i do not have the time and energy to pull that off.

Enjoy

Looks good 150% Load with wayland GUI (96  Khz samplerate), the old version was 250 % load

Now also an image for Radioberry using a CL016 FPGA is available.

Johan, thank you for your great development efforts.

I looked into the differences between the Raspberry Pi4 and 5.
- Radioberry2(10CL016-board) and SparkSDR(4RX-96k sampling)
- RPi4B(bookworm-64bit)  %CPU 58%
- RPi5 (bookworm-64bit)  %CPU  2%  FB! :)

< RPi4 / RB2(gw73.3_gpio) >

Tnx!

I am seeing similar results here on my RPi5. Tnx Johan!

I would like to test out how the 10rx-cic firmware works, would it be possible to update
the hermes-lite github repo with the 75.0 updates? Currently it is still at 73.3.

Hi Paul,

It has been some time since I played with my Radioberry boards.  I have two, one with CL025 and one with CL016 and a pair of Juice boards as well.  I have s few questions if you would indulge me:

1.  Is it (in your estimation) worth playing with the RPi4 or 5 with the Radioberry over the Juice/Radioberry combination?  I forget what I used on the PC with this combination, Thetis perhaps?

2.  What SDR SW is being displayed in your picture?  Doesn't look like PiHPSDR or DeskHPSDR unless a lot of work was done to customize the program display.  I like what I see in your picture a lot, which is why I am asking.  I looked at the Github pages for both and they look like (more or less) how PiHPSDR looked back when I was playing with it on a RPi 3B+ I think it was.  I am also confused by the two screens, one monitor and one RPi LCD display (I think).  What is driving each one?

I think I have another question as well, but it escapes me at the moment!

73,

Robert, WA2T
