Install uhd after usrp drivers

GNU Radio
1

Hi, I’ve managed to install gnuradio from source before I installed the
UHD
driver from ettus, and now gnuradio cannot find the uhd source and sink
blocks. After looking in the directories for the installation, I cannot
find uhd files such as usr/share/gnuradio/examples/uhd. Furthermore, in
python I type “from gnuradio import uhd” and it cannot be found.

My question is: does the uhd installation fail if the uhd drivers from
ettus are not first installed?

And secondly, can I install only the uhd directory from source, without
having to re-install gnuradio all over again?

Thanks,

Jeff

Hi Jeff,

If you are compiling GNU Radio from source you need to install the UHD
first otherwise it will not compile in the necessary components.

If you already have GNU Radio installed from source, you will need to
uninstall GNU Radio, compile and install UHD followed by compiling and
installing GNU Radio.

The build GNU Radio script from Marcus L. is highly recommended as it
also does the UHD:
