Hi Jorge, The '[WARNING] [DPDK] Detected use_dpdk argument, but DPDK support not built in' message means that the version of UHD you are using (in this case, the 3.15.LTS version you installed via PyBOMBS) was not compiled with DPDK support. For DPDK to be available and usable, the UHD driver has to be built against the appropriate version of the DPDK libraries for UHD. If you build the UHD 3.15.LTS branch from source and have the appropriate DPDK libraries installed, the cmake step prior to compilation will indicate support for DPDK in the output:
-- Found DPDK: /usr/local/include/dpdk (found version "18.11") (note: this is the output for building UHD-4.0, hence the more recent version) : : -- ###################################################### -- # UHD enabled components -- ###################################################### : -- * DPDK : Then you should be able to proceed.
