Hi, 
 
When I executed the "uhd_find_devices"

I got an following WARNING 
"[WARNING] [UHD] Unable to set the thread priority. Performance may be negatively affected.

similarly, the warning disappeared when I put the sudo in it. 
 
Marcus said it is incomplete installation, if the sudo needed. 
 
As Marcus recommended, I created(because there was no such file) /etc/udev/rules.d/10-usrp.rules and put the following contents.

Do I need to re-install the uhd?

All that you are seeing is part of the normal behavior. The warnings are fairly descriptive on telling you what is happening. As you did, you set the Udev rules as depicted in our manual [1]. Later, you see the thread priority and you are encouraged to go to the manual again, where you will find the description of that warning and what to do to set the thread priority [2]. -Nicolas [1] https://files.ettus.com/manual/page_transport.html#transport_usb_udev [2] https://files.ettus.com/manual/page_general.html#general_threading_prio On Tue, May 8, 2018 at 6:15 AM, Hojoon Yang via USRP-users < usrp-users@lists.ettus.com> wrote: > Hi, I resolved the "[ERROR] [USB] USB open failed: insufficient > permissions." problem > > > by the following commands, > > > sudo cp uhd-usrp.rules /etc/udev/rules.d/ > > sudo udevadm control --reload-rules > > sudo udevadm trigger > > > However, I still get the warning if I executed the uhd example programs > without "sudo" > > > [WARNING] [UHD] Unable to set the thread priority.

Dear USRP folks, If the steps in [1] and [2] are needed to prevent the sudo requirement (I have the same problem, Hojoon), then could Ettus please add those commands to the installation instructions in https://kb.ettus.com/Building_and_Installing_the_USRP_Open-Source_Toolchain_(UHD_and_GNU_Radio)_on_Linux If it had not been for Hojoon's post, I would be at sea as to how to solve it.

I believe these instructions are all the more necessary, since they (the instructions) seem to be unstable. For example, [1] says to change folder to <install-path>/lib/uhd/utils But there is no such path (at least in UHD version 3.9.7). The closest is workarea-uhd/uhd/host/lib/utils Which, though easy enough to find, begs the question if other paths have changed then will some of these batches help or hurt?

Hello Alejandra, Both of the instructions are correct. The confusion is that the manual copies the file from the installed version of UHD and the application note copies it from the source code directory. By default the install location will be "/usr/local/" so the full path in [1] would be /usr/local/lib/uhd/utils. The app note does include the instructions for configuring non-root USB access. https://kb.ettus.com/Building_and_Installing_the_USRP_Open-Source_Toolchain_(UHD_and_GNU_Radio)_on_Linux#Configuring_USB It also includes the notes about threading priority at the end. https://kb.ettus.com/Building_and_Installing_the_USRP_Open-Source_Toolchain_(UHD_and_GNU_Radio)_on_Linux#Thread_priority_scheduling I'll have a think about how to make it clear that those sections are necessary reads after finishing the base installation process. A note at the end of the UHD installation section makes sense.
