Cygwin, usb_control_msg failed:

GNU Radio

Hi,

I installed libusb-win32-filter-bin-0.1.12.0.exe to c:\LibUSB-Win32.
I compiled the sys and dll (cd /cygdrive/c/LibUSB-Win32/src; make all).

I installed the USRP windows driver following the description at
http://gnuradio.org/trac/wiki/USRPWindowsDriverInstall

When i look at the driver property in the device manager
i see that ‘the device is working properly’. The libusb test program
detects the device as well.

When i run ./test_usrp_standard_rx.exe i get:
usb_control_msg failed: usb_control_msg: sending control message failed,
win error: A device attached to the system is not functioning.

rx_overun
xfered 1.34e+08 bytes in 4.25 seconds. 3.158e+07 bytes/sec. cpu time =
0.297
noverungs = 1

I get the first error message with any tool i try to access the USRP
(usrp_rx_cfile.py for example).

usrp_oscope.py displays the same error message but i see the signal
graph (but almost no amplitude).

This shouldn’t be necessary; simply installing libusb from Cygwin setup
should be enough.

This appears to be a new issue with version 0.1.12.0-1 of libusb.

It sounds like everything is working despite the error message. I also
get
the same error message with the new libusb, but my GNU Radio
applications
still seem to work ok.

I will look into the problem and see what I can find out. For now you
can
either use it as is or go back to version 0.1.10.1-3 of libusb.
