Subject: [Discuss-gnuradio] RTL-SDR: Failed to open rtlsdr device
Message-ID:
<[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=“iso-8859-1”
I have installed rtl-sdr driver in my machine. The tarball of the source
I used is attached. The commands I used ( after cd-ying to the source
directory ) are listed.
[[email protected] rtl-sdr]$ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr
-DINSTALL_UDEV_RULES=ON .
[[email protected] rtl-sdr]$ make
[[email protected] rtl-sdr]$ sudo make install
[[email protected] rtl-sdr]$ sudo cp rtl-sdr.rules
/etc/udev/rules.d/15-rtl-sdr.rules
[[email protected] rtl-sdr]$ sudo chown root:root
/etc/udev/rules.d/15-rtl-sdr.rules
[[email protected] rtl-sdr]$ sudo udevadm control --reload-rules
But when I run rtl_test I get the following message.
[[email protected] ~]# rtl_test
Found 1 device(s):
0: ezcap USB 2.0 DVB-T/DAB/FM dongle
Using device 0: ezcap USB 2.0 DVB-T/DAB/FM dongle usb_claim_interface
error -6 Failed to open rtlsdr device #0.
I’m working on Arch linux x86_64, installed from Currnt Release
(2013.03.01)
I googled, but not much info is available on this*.* Has anyone come
across such a situation?
