Hi Pierre,

You said you installed the gr-oscocom via pybombs, isn't it?

Ric Sanders sent an email (Subject: "Pybombs - Updated") to the list with very detailed instructions on how to have everything running using Pybombs and if you follow it step by step I'm sure you'll be able to a fully working setup within a few hours. Start with a scratch Ubuntu 14.04 installation and follow his instructions. I installed using Pybombs on 3 different machines running all Ubuntu 14.04 and everything I need worked like a charm.

Andrea

P.S. Thanks Richard for the great instructions (and fixes!)

I copied the osmosdr_sink.xml and osmosdr_source.xml, found in the Pentoo ISO into the .../gnuradio/grc/blocks directory and now I can see the osmocom source and sink but the library it is pointing to (osmosdr) is probably not good.

I have gone through the troubleshooting web page.  I also installed the osmocom from PyBombs. The installation has been done as root.

I have checked the directory /target/share/gnuradio/grc/blocks and no xml from hackrf or osmocom.  I tried to copy the xml taken from the Pentoo installation but it is missing the osmosdr from the import.
