Can't open usrp

Hi all,
I had received a USRP (Rev 4.5) from someone. The USRP was modified to
operate in slave mode.
First I opened it and powered on; the LED was blinking.
So I did the following.

  1. turned it OFF and open circuited R2030 and short-circuited R2029
  2. move C926 to C925
  3. added C924
  4. powerd on the USRP; the LED was OFF
  5. checked the onboard clock by probing at J2002 and got a 64MHz
    sinusoidal(?) waveform on my oscilloscope. that means the power supply
    is
    okey and the clock is working right?
  6. I run usrp examples, and got the following error.

usrp: failed to find usrp[0]
Tracback most recent calls last):
File “./usrp_wfm_rcv.py”, line 297, in


File “/usr/lib/python2.6/dist-packages/gnuradio/usrp/usrp_swig.py”, line
1646, in source_c
return _usrp_swig.source_c(*args, **kwargs)
RuntimeError: can’t open usrp

I get the same error message when I run this code without the USRP; the
only
difference is that it hangs for about 3 minutes before printing the
message
when the USRP is connected.

I checked the var/log/messages file and got the following

Hi,
Are you working with Linux ?
If so, try to run sudo wbfm_receive or sudo usrp_probe to test the
presence
of usrp.

please help me to solve this
