*Good to know
- Will not install from DVD, burn ISO to USB w/ Etcher etc..
- Before installing most GPU and WiFi drivers
- sudo apt install dkms
- Some USRP FPGAs have been removed to save space, but can be downloaded w/ internet using sudo uhd_images_downloader
- sudo uhd_images_downloader
- New ground up build on Lubuntu 22.04
- Crocodile Hunter and GsmEvil2 require python virtual environments.
- included in /usr/src/crododilehunter/src
- included in /usr/src/gsmevil2
- open DragonOS_README in each directory for instructions on how to activate
- SoapySDRServer is not enabled by default, either use SoapySDRServer cli or enable.
- Run volk_profile from a terminal after install to increase GNU Radio performance
- Disable Soapy w/ SDR++ module manager before using native hackRF plugin
- On some systems xlinrad64 seg faults (make sure you're running it with sudo). You can try to rebuild it in the directory w/
sudo ./configure && sudo make xlinrad64
Running Changelog
DragonOS_FocalX R36 (June 28 2024)
*Please note that it may not be possible at this time to update from R35
to R36 mainly because I rebuilt GNU Radio and all applications that use it. I
did not start with an easy method of maintaining GNU Radio, but hopefully moving forward
it'll be easier. I recommend a fresh install if possible.
