I just reinstalled Ubuntu on my computer, I compiled GNURadio from
source.
I’m now running GNU Radio Companion 3.7.6git-1-g01deede3
With GNU Radio Companion I can access and listen to radio stations on my
RTL-SDR dongle just fine. However today I just received my HackRF
radio.
Now, using the “osmocom Source” & HackRF I receive the following error
msg.
“FATAL: No supported devices found to pick from” Is there a driver I
need to download for HackRF, if so where & how to I add that to my
system?

You need libhackrf. And you’ll probably need to recompile gr-osmosdr
after installing it:
I just finished doing the same thing for my shiny-new Hackrf.
Here is what worked for me on the same Ubuntu and GNURadio:
sudo apt-get install hackrf-tools
Add a one-line file to enable USB access to hackrf.
sudo gedit
Start a new file and enter this one line:
ATTR{idVendor}==“1d50”, ATTR{idProduct}==“6089”,
SYMLINK+=“hackrf-one-%k”, MODE=“660”, GROUP=“plugdev”
Right-click on the file tab, click Save As, click on Computer, then go
to this directory:
/etc/udev/rules.d Enter this file name: 52-hackrf.rules then
click Save.
Exit gedit Reboot*

With Hackrf One plugged in to USB, test it:
hackrf_info
Start a new file and enter this one line:
ATTR{idVendor}==“1d50”, ATTR{idProduct}==“6089”, SYMLINK+=“hackrf-one-%k”,
MODE=“660”, GROUP=“plugdev”
Right-click on the file tab, click Save As, click on Computer, then go to
this directory:
/etc/udev/rules.d Enter this file name: 52-hackrf.rules
then click Save.
Exit gedit
Reboot
That file comes with the hackrf sources and I did not have to reboot
to have that work. Linux needs less reboots than Windows
ls pybombs/src/hackrf/host/libhackrf/
