How to install on Linux? #57

Open LuxStatera opened 6 months ago

LuxStatera commented 6 months ago

The instructions are unclear. Do I make the file myself or do I just use the .jar file? What do you mean by building the executable? Should I skip the .jar file and try to build an executable? Do I git clone this or not?

I tried to use the.jar file which opened but it did not recognize my HackRF. Clicking "Load ExtIO source" didn't connect my HackRF. It brought up a window to search through my files.

I git cloned this repo and tried to "build an executable" but it gave me an error.

Do you have a wiki that gives a detailed explanation of the installation process and also how to setup and use the software?

You clone the repo, go into JavaGUI folder and build the executable using make all. Then, try running it with java -jar JTempestSDR.jar. I could not start the program with just double-clicking JTempestSDR.jar . If you're getting errors when building the executable, please build the executable with make all &> out.txt and provide us the out.txt file, so we can see the errors.

Edit: Also, install UHD drivers and Boost libraries:

sudo apt-get install libboost-all-dev
sudo apt-get install libuhd-dev uhd-host

or in JavaGUI/makefile comment out TSDRPlugin_UHD on line 91 like this: PLUGINS += # TSDRPlugin_UHD This will skip compiling the plugin for UHD.
