[Discuss-gnuradio] USRP on Fedora 6 runtime error

[Mahmoud Gad]

Hi

I am using Fedora 6, on HP Pavilion 5000 laptop, with USB 2.0, a new USRP board (tested at Jan 2007) and GNUradio 3.0 installed without any problem.

The board is seen as USB 2.0 device (when I used usbview).

Now, Whenever I try to run any example in the gunradio-examples directory i get the following error message

 

##############################################################################

address@hidden usrp]# ./test_counting.py

usrp: failed to load fpga bitstream /usr/share/usrp/rev4/std_2rxhb_2tx.rbf.

Traceback (most recent call last):

return _usrp1.source_s(*args)
