Hi,

I have problems to get the USB SDR to work under Linux (Ubuntu 10.4). I've installed latest libhamlib and libusb as well as libftdi, but Dream is not able to change the frequency. Is there any special trick in configuring hamlib? Thought it would be fine just out of the box. The hardware is OK, anything works fine under windows. Any hint for me? Would be great to get it running....

I am not familiar with dream, but I do know that the USB port needs the receiver progrtam to be run with sudo.
My experience with hamlib/libusb/libtdi are good
Addressing the filter (december 2009) is afaik not included, so for my simple receiver I rewrote the usb handling.

Hello Jan42,

Thanks a lot, you gave me the absolute helpful hint. Running Dream with root rights solved the problem and now its working. I was even not thinking one second that the program will need root rights for the USB port and was trying so much different things in countless hours....thanks again.

Cheers
