Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] raspi FAQ/HOWTO/recipe ??????

Hi Rob,

IMO the easiest way to setup GNURadio on Rpi is to use Archlinux [1]. You could find platform specific installation instructions on the website itself.  Rpi-1 is underpowered and make sure that you are not running any GUIs while running a flowgraph. Create your flowgraphs on a local machine and  run the generated python file on Pi (if you are using Pi-1). Performance results for some simple tests on Pi-1 and 2 with RTLSDRs  are given below (GPU FFT not enabled on both, works without any overflows).

Rpi-1 : 2MS/s, 512pt FFT with a block decimation of 16 (with UDP streaming to local PC)
Rpi-2 : 2MS/s, 512pt FFT, bounded by USB throughput (with UDP streaming to local PC)

Thanks for all the good feedback folks!

I think I'm going to stick to the precompiled packages in the repo for the short term ..... so I'll probably be back with more questions soon :)
