Usrp uhd - osx

GNU Radio
1

I’m having some trouble with UHD on OSX 10.6. I have Gnuradio from GIT
and
built host code for UHD form source, but I have image package downloaded
(I
thought I had read building images was problematic under OSX 10.6?).
I’m
suspecting the issue has to do with image mismatch, but thought I would
get
feedback before I dig in too deep.

I pulled both daughterboards just to make sure (as one was RFX 900), but
it
had no change.

/usr/bin/uhd_usrp_probe
Mac OS; GNU C++ version 4.2.1 (Apple Inc. build 5646); Boost_104601;
UHD_003.002.000-e03f7c7

We have a usrp-users list for things that are not gnuradio related:

More of the same… Ubuntu 10.4 has this too.
There error is harmless, but something is messed up with catching and
throwing boost thread_interrupted exception. I will give it a run on my
OSX machine and see what happens

Whats your gcc --version?

I think your installed library does not match your installed executable.
