I've ubuntu 9.10 karmic koala 64bit and the latest gnu radio installed on a hp dv7-1020us and I get the same error that Fabrizio was getting.
address@hidden:/usr/local/share/gnuradio/examples/usrp$ ./usrp_benchmark_usb.py

If I try lsusrp I get also something similar to Fabrizio:
address@hidden:/usr/local/share/gnuradio/examples/usrp$ lsusrp
usrp_open_interface:usb_set_alt_interface: failed
could not set alt intf 0/0: Connection timed out

usrp: failed to find usrp[6]
usrp: failed to find usrp[7]
I'm in the same group:
address@hidden:/usr/local/share/gnuradio/examples/usrp$ id frsn
uid=1000(frsn) gid=1000(frsn) grupos=1000(frsn),4(adm),20(dialout),24(cdrom),46(plugdev),106(lpadmin),121(admin),122(sambashare),1001(usrp)
And I've also done the following:
address@hidden:/usr/local/share/gnuradio/examples/usrp$ ls -lR /dev/bus/usb | grep usrp
crw-rw---- 1 root usrp 189, 133 2010-04-15 14:39 006
I'm not using a virtual box, it's pure linux. Can anyone help?
Thanks!
