Hi all,

On a pristine new build of Ubuntu 18.04 on a Pentium 
Intel(R) Pentium(R) CPU G4560 @ 3.50GHz
(which has no AVX/AVX2 extensions because the bloke in the PC
shop has no idea what does and doesn't)
anyway, Downloading LPCnet
git clone https://github.com/drowe67/LPCNet
the build requires codec2 BUT, codec2 also requires LPCnet.
git clone -b brad-2020 https://github.com/drowe67/codec2
Do make install here, then go back, do LPCnet, go back to Codec2
mod the CMakeLists.txt file, add the location of LPCnet (about
line 133, add a "set" line) mkdir new_build_dir and make install
again.

git clone -b brad-2020 https://github.com/drowe67/freedv-gui

And it looks to be working but with no AVX/AVX2 the CPU load is
heavy, 115% though in 700D mode it's 105% according to "top".

Running with remote display ( ssh -Y user@host ) "top" reports
only 50% CPU usage on the Pentium G4560 box, mode 2020.
And, the box draws 32 Watts.
Not bad. It's an Asus H110M-A m/b with 8Gb ram and a 2Tb hard disk.

Next to connect the radio.
The audio device, A VOLANS VL-UA01

Keep smiling
