The binary package install adds the group 'usrp' and allows members of that group to access the USRP, but you need to add your userid to that group (this is in the wiki page you used.) 2) You have a physical cabling issue (such as not using a USB2.0 standard rated cable). -Johnathan ___ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio

A simple test if this is your error is to run the benchmark as root. If it works, you need to fix permissions to the hardware. - George ___ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
[Discuss-gnuradio] Problem with GNU radio installation in UBUNTU 8.10
Hi, I am trying to install GNU radio on Ubuntu 8.10. I followed the script method (apt-get) step by step as described in wiki. All the packages are completey installed without any error.(during installation). But still GNU radio cant access the USRP. I am using USRP1 with my sony vaio fw160j. Following error occured when i tried to run th example usrp_benchmark_usb.py [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ python '/usr/local/share/gnuradio/examples/usrp/usrp_benchmark_usb.py' Testing 2MB/sec... usrp_open_interface:usb_claim_interface: failed interface 0 could not claim interface 0: Operation not permitted open_nth_cmd_interface: open_cmd_interface failed usrp: failed to load firmware /usr/local/share/usrp/rev2/std.ihx.

Further i have to test the files of GSM scanner project. Can i do so using the latest stable release of gnu radio or i have to use some previous releases? Any suggestion?
