Gqrx 2.6 released
I am happy to announce that Gqrx 2.6 has now been released and ready for download. As promised, this release includes experimental binaries for the Raspberry Pi 2 and 3.
Gqrx on the Odroid C2
Michael, DG0OPK has been doing a lot of experimenting with running Gqrx on various ARM boards. In this video below, he shows gqrx running on the latest Odroid C2 from Hardkernel, which has a 64 bit, 2 GHz quad-core processor.
Ubuntu packages for armhf architectures
Just a quick note that we have got armhf builds enabled for our gqrx/snapshots repository. Armhf refers to ARM architecture with hardware floating point support.
For now I have rebuilt all packages for Ubuntu 12.04 as this seems to be most common Ubuntu used on ARM devices. Later I will also rebuild for Ubuntu 13.04 but there are limits on how much resources one can use when building for armhf and I have to watch out not to abuse this service.
I can imagine that gqrx may not be very useful on all arm devices; however, I hope that at least the driver libraries, the command line tools and maybe even gnuradio itself will be useful.
Feedback is welcome.
