Hello everyone and greetings from Germany.
I have already searched, but unfortunately I can't find anything.
I am looking for help to set up the PhantomSDR step by step.
I would like to run it on my Proxmox.
I also have basic knowledge of Linux. But this is just beyond my knowledge :(
Let me describe how far I get.
So installing Ubuntu, updating etc. is no problem.
Installing the prerequisites also works.
I then change to /opt for the installation.
I always try to build the binary files automatically.
It also goes through and in the last step I select the RX888.
From then on, unfortunately, I can't get any further :(
Welcome aboard!
Please post your setup inside these two files :
config-rx888mk2.toml & start-rx888mk2.sh
Hello Phil,
before i Post the setup, further Informations ;)
I build again a new Server.
And before i try again to get the RX888 running, i make some trys with a Nooelec V5 and RTL-SDR Blog V3 (Gen) an a Gen RSP1a.
I copied the settings from https://github.com/Steven9101/PhantomSDR-Plus/wiki/Config-examples.
i run the startup files with ./start-xxxx from the folder. Webserver is running, but the audio sounds strange and i only can enter Frequencys in the Range of the Waterfall.
Now it seems to work :)
After i correct the input SPS ;)
Now i can dig deeper ;)
Promox isn't fast enough to run an RX888 wideband.
As you need GPU + CPU power, there won't be much room to run anything else.
As Promox is a virtual-container-server, it won't have enough power.
You need direct-videocard access via OpenCL.
I really doubt Promox supplies this, as it's meant for virtual-servers etc.
Also direct hardware access because it's realtime high-speed USB traffic.
Sorry my friend, you really need to install a native Ubuntu 22.04 on a real hardware.
This is not something you can run in a container.
Best CPU's are Intel i5 and i7 with internal GPU, Gen6 or newer that support OpenCL.
Dare I ask. I have a machine running on a Intel Xeon CPU E5-2630L, there is no video core. Is such a computer suitable for our purposes?
