[Discuss-gnuradio] Is WUBI (Lucid) a viable environment for GNU-Radio (3.2.2) ?
I recently purchased a USRP and have a fresh install of WUBI (HP Pavillion DV5 , Windows Home Vista) and used gnuradio.org/redmine/wiki/gnuradio/UbuntuInstall to install things. I passed 'make check' correctly I have my username in the group usrp j...@ubuntu:~/gnuradio$ ls -lR /dev/bus/usb | grep usrp crw-rw 1 root usrp 189, 132 2010-09-21 11:14 005 when I execute ./usrp_benchmark_usb.py I get: Testing 2MB/sec... gr_vmcircbuf_createfilemapping: createfilemapping is not available /home/john/.gnuradio/prefs/gr_vmcircbuf_default_factory: Permission denied uUuOuUuOuUuOuUuOuUuOuUuOuUuOuUuOuUuOuUuOuUuOuOuUuOuUuOuUuOuUuOuUuOuUuOuU^Z and it hangs so I kill it [1]+ Stopped ./usrp_benchmark_usb.py I cannot repeat this operation as I get Testing 2MB/sec... usrp_open_interface:usb_set_alt_interface: failed could not set alt intf 0/0: Connection timed out open_nth_cmd_interface: open_cmd_interface failed usrp: failed to load firmware /usr/share/usrp/rev4/std.ihx. Traceback (most recent call last): File ./usrp_benchmark_usb.py, line 106, in module main () snip. unless I move the USRP to a new USB port in which case I get the first symptom again I have seen similar posts elsewhere re: issues with USB ports, Python and VirtualBox so my question is has anyone been able to run GNURADIO on WUBI?

Thanks Eric, will do though I used the sealed one given by Ettus but stranger things have happened. I had also wondered about whether the USB ports on my laptop were running fast enough and before I posted, have confirmed Enhanced in the Host Controller description. I wonder if U is underun and O is overrun? I briefly looked at the source but am not familiar with GNU_Radio and it's classes.
