ImportError: cannot import name stdgui

Hello,
I finally got the power supply for my USRP today, so I am trying to get
up to speed on GNUradio using it. I am running Ubuntu 8.10 on an amd64
platform. The USRP has two set of LFRX 1.0 and LFRX. No antennas
connected yet.

I followed the instructions for 8.10 intrepid for building. Did the
tests, and they seemed to pass though there was a warning about
something or other being missing early on. I had restarted my system as
the documentation suggested. I did the ld.so.conf fix as suggested, and
ldconfig.

Next thing I tried was the simple AM receiver, and it is here that I am
running into trouble. Following KD7LMO’s instructions, I ran:

am_rcv.py usrp 0

and received the following error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “./am_rcv.py”, line 11, in
from gnuradio.wxgui import stdgui, fftsink
ImportError: cannot import name stdgui
bob@hadron:~/gnuradio/gnuradio-examples/python/usrp/limbo$

From what I can tell, the modules exist…well sorta. I see gr_wxgui, I
have the various wxpython packages installed.

Has this code suffered bit rot or is there some environment variable I
need to set? I’ve tried this both as root and as non-root with the same
result (I following the installation instructions so I could run as
non-root).

Any help would be most appreciated.

Code in the ‘limbo’ directory is there to be preserved for future
reference, but is no longer maintained. In this case, the app you are
trying to run is only compatible with GNU Radio 3.1.x or earlier.

I suggest you use one of the examples in the ‘usrp’ directory.
