[Hackrf-dev] Hi & 1st stupid question... :)

[Adam Laurie]

Hi All,

I'm on vacation and using a mobile sim data connection which is slow and
painful, so apologies in advance if I could have simply looked this up
somewhere, but I'm having serious problems getting stuff to build...

I managed to update the hackrf board itself, but trying to get gnu-radio
etc to build is proving impossible... Is there a detailed build
instruction set somewhere?

I'm currently trying to do it piecemeal, and I'm now at this stage:

http://sdr.osmocom.org/trac/wiki/GrOsmoSDR

I have two issues... First, I can't figure out how to get IQ Imbalance
Correction enabled, and secondly, and probably more seriously, when I
try to make I get:

I'm not sure it's a GCC issue. In GR 3.7.0, both the names of the
header files and the names of many GR types have changed.
Additionally, the names of some packages (gnuradio-core) and the cmake
scripts/pkg-config spec files that GR installs to locate itself have
changed.

If you've got GR 3.6 installed, try the gr3.6 branch of gr-osmosdr.
If 3.7, then current should work.

If you've recently installed 3.7 on top of an existing 3.6 (or
earlier) installation, the above changes could cause some ugly
problems. Something's #including <math.h> in order to get some
standard C math functions (acos, sin, etc.); but the compilation chain
is finding <gnuradio/math.h> instead.

See if this fixes the problem:
1) first, ensure you've got the correct versions of both GR and
gr-osmosdr checked out;
2) then, remove all trace of any existing GR installation from
your system. This includes the header files, libraries, cmake data,
pkg-config .pc files, and anything else. (On my system, this
basically amounts to doing a find(1) in /usr/local and deleting
everything with 'gnuradio' or 'gruel' in the name, but it's probably
wise to look at what that includes before doing a blind rm.)
3) Reinstall GR. (You probably don't have to rebuild it.)
4) Try again.

Hope this helps,

Hi,

Thanks for the reply... Yes, that looks promising - doing a find gets me
*all kinds* of mixed up versions!

So what's the recommendation after tidy up? 3.6 or 3.7?

If you're not doing gnuradio hacking on the bleeding edge, you want
3.6 - 3.7 breaks a ton of things so you'll be doing a LOT of cleanup
on blocks.

I recently wrote up this[1]. I'm using GnuRadio 3.7 as I encountered
problems similar to what you report in the 3.6 branch.

Hi All,
I'm on vacation and using a mobile sim data connection which is slow and
painful, so apologies in advance if I could have simply looked this up
somewhere, but I'm having serious problems getting stuff to build...
I managed to update the hackrf board itself, but trying to get gnu-radio
etc to build is proving impossible... Is there a detailed build
instruction set somewhere?

I recently wrote up this[1]. I'm using GnuRadio 3.7 as I encountered
problems similar to what you report in the 3.6 branch.

Cool, well I was about to put something on the wiki as Brandon's advice
seems to have worked, but if you've already written it up perhaps a
better starting point would be there... would you care to share your
writeup?

cheers,
Adam

I was using the build-gnuradio script as a starting point for all this,
but have just discovered an updated version that actually does
*everything* including installing hackrf itself, so I've added that to
the wiki...

Thanks! Yes, build-gnuradio now is probably the preferred way to
install on distros that don't already support libhackrf.

Two caveats:

1. build-gnuradio doesn't install hackrf-tools, as Adam noted on the
wiki already. This might be something Marcus would agree to add if
someone sends him a patch.

2. build-gnuradio doesn't update the Jawbreaker firmware or place the
firmware binary anywhere, so you'll have to get the binary from the
release package (or compile it yourself) and install it:

Oops, sorry about that. Forgot to include the URL.
