Usrp2_fft segmentation fault

Hello,

I am looking for some advice regarding the use of the USRP2 and I hope
that you can help me. Please forgive my inexperience, it is very short
that I have been working on this area. The USRP2 I am using has an RFX
2400 daughterboard, the environment is Suse 10.3 and these are the
steps I have followed:

1/ Installed boost library 1.36 as explained in the readme and added
it to LD_LIBRARY_PATH

2/ Installed Microblaze compiler as explained in the wiki and added it
to PATH

3/ Installed the gnuradio trunk version 9831
./bootstrap
./configure --with-boost=$BOOST_PREFIX
make
make check (all test passed)
make install

4/ USRP2 is found (LEDS D and F are on)
~/gnuradio-usrp2-rev9831/usrp2/host # find_usrps
00:50:c2:85:30:18 hw_rev = 0x0300

5/Then I try to run the usrp2_fft.py and get
~/gnuradio-usrp2-rev9831/gr-utils/src/python # python usrp2_fft.py -f 2.
4G

Segmentation fault

The same happens with any of the other codes for the usrp2.

I would be very gratefull if you could come up with a solution.
Best regards

There has been some recent changes in the USRP2 host and firmware code
which appear to be incompatible. I will be working on this tonight and
over the weekend.

You need to install the current usrp2 firmware (what you just built)
onto the SD card. usrp2/firmware/apps/txrx.bin is the file that
should be installed into the s/w slot of the SD card.
See the USRP2 FAQs. I suspect the info’s in there somewhere…
