Problems installing UHD + USRP1

Hi,

I am trying to install UHD from source on a Fedora 13 machine.

After building/installation I run successfully:
sudo ./uhd_usrp_probe
(see output at the end of the email)

however the command:

sudo ./benchmark_rx_rate

after some initial messages halts…

Any suggestions?

thanks
Achilleas

So, the benchmark rx uses time stamps to measure the packet loss.
Because the timestamps are emulated for usrp1, this measurement is going
to be very flawed. See
http://www.ettus.com/uhd_docs/manual/html/usrp1.html#missing-and-emulated-features

In any case, I fixed the problem with the benchmark locking up w/ USRP1,
just give the master a pull. It turns out that the emulated time needed
to be initialized or the loop would never quit.
