Hi,
I tried that, but I am still getting an error as shown below:

I changed the file I wrote to /etc/udev/rules.d/rtl-sdr.rules to the
following--changing 2838 to 4014 since that was the other instance of
the dongle that I found, as explained below. I also tried with no
rtl-sdr.rules file and that did not work either:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0bda", ATTRS{idProduct}=="4014",
GROUP="adm", MODE="0666", SYMLINK+="rtl_sdr"

Hi,
I think you've forgotten to blacklist the dvbt driver. In Ubuntu, you
have to add the following line to /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf:
blacklist dvb_usb_rtl28xxu.

I am trying to run a simple fm receiver example using a RTL-SDR
dongle. It is connected. But, when I run, I get the following errors:

So, I did a lsusb command and got the following:
edtroy@ubuntu:/etc/udev/rules.d$ lsusb
Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0bda:2838 Realtek Semiconductor Corp.
RTL2838 DVB-T
Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0bda:4014 Realtek Semiconductor Corp.

Bus 002 Device 002: ID 0e0f:0003 VMware, Inc. Virtual Mouse
Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub
I'm not sure which is the device that I should use, but I think it
is Device 004. So, I wrote a file named rtlsdr.rules that I put in
the directory /etc/udev/rules.d/ . That file consists of the
following:
SUBSYSTEM=="usb", ATTRS{idVendor}=="0bda",
ATTRS{idProduct}=="2838", GROUP="adm", MODE="0666", SYMLINK+="rtl_sdr"
But, when I try to run the example, I still get the above error.
Any ideas what I am doing wrong and need to do to get RTLSDR
dongle to work?
