Any luck or movement ?
Not working for me this weekend on Mint 19, Iām using CubicSDR AppImage from release area instead. Also trying SDRAngel later today.
SdrAngel should work with soapysdr and nativly ā¦
Testing linhpsdr / soapysdr in a bit ā¦
quisk-4.1.35 has just started support RX only at the moment but it works. Jim is away at the moment so we can expect further support to follow soon.
I have it working on openSUSE Tumbleweed x86_64. All the packages provided in an openSUSE repository.

I tested LimeSuite to make sure it ranā¦It did successfully. So then I did the same method as you to install GQRX. My gnuradio, gr-osmosdr etc. are installed by pybombs,
I can run my grc file:
I canāt run gqrx:
It is crashed this time:

Should I reinstall gnuradio osmosdr etc. without using pybombs?
Thereās been some reports that GQRX for both Windows and Linux have stopped working for the LimeSDR (see KC7NOAās comments in the threads above that itās broken for Ubuntu 18.04 LTS) and some of that may be because of the routine changes made to the FPGA loads and things (registers) being re-arranged that are specific to the GQRX app and not so much GNU Radio Companion. So thereās no reason for alarm pertaining to GQRX - eventually things will get sorted out and itāll start functioning again, but weāre at the mercy of the author on that.

its working ā¦ but it works in OS openSUSE ā¦
and quisk is also
Try setting āsoapy=1,driver=limeā or āsoapy=2,driver=limeā.
Iām having the same issue reported by many here. My installation was working (ubuntu 18.10, limesdr mini) until I did the repository update a while back. Now I have the issue SoapySDR::Device::make() no match even though SoapySDRUtil --find returns my limesdr correctly. I have noticed this issue on other software using SoapySDR too (gr-iridium).
There was mention by @martywittrock that it could be the firmware that came with the repo update causing this issue.
Has anyone rolled back their firmware and, I assume, LimeSuite and SoapySDR versions and got their system working again?
If youāve tried it successfully what was needed? ie. just an old firmware from the github or do I need to do driver/software changes too?
It still doesnāt work. 
gqrx crashes out here on openSUSE but is OK with quisk

Do you want to edit the settings?
With the the latest OSX port installs ( rr-limesdr @2.0.0_1, limesuite @19.01.0_2 and gqrx @2.11.5_1) on Mojave, Iām finding it working well. Iām using the following
DEVICE: LimeSDR-USB [USB 3.0] 9072C00000000
Device String: addr=1d50:6108,driver=lime,media=āUSB 3.0ā,module=FX3,name=LimeSDR-USB,serial=0009072C00000000
For some reason the confg window wants to append ā,soapy=0ā to the device string

Thanks for gqrx support. I collected some notes to
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/LimeSDR
however I still keep getting these
[ERROR] SetFrequencySXR(30 MHz) - cannot deliver frequency
[ERROR] Rx calibration: MCU error 3 (SXR tune failed)
when trying to tune below 31Mhz. I have:
input rate: 10000000 (10 000 000)
decimation: None
sample rate: 60Mhz
LNB LO: 0
This is Fedora 30.
# rpm -q SoapySDR limeutil gqrx
SoapySDR-0.6.1-3.20180806gite694813.fc30.x86_64
limeutil-0-1.fc30.x86_64
gqrx-2.11.5-5.fc30.x86_64
Above 31Mhz it works just fine. Any idea how to get it work?
What it would require to have LimeSDR selectable from I/O device pull-down menu? Is that SoapySDR side or in Gqrx files? Would it make sense as it appers that BW settings might need to be set depending on use situation?
In ubuntu 18.04 i connected my LimeSDRmini and i trying to configure it with GQRX but the LimeSDRmini was not detected.
the steps which i followed:
1)i connected the board in USB 3.0.
2) LimeQuicktest was passed.
3)In LimeSuite application the board was deducted.
4)the GQRX also working fine.but in I/O device configuration the LimeSDRmini was not visible.
5)so i given OTHERS option.then i could not getting the specific antenna selection and some options are not shown. and also while playing with GQRX i checked with USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 also. but problem was not solved.
so my question is how to configure the LimeSDRmini with GQRX in ubuntu 18.04
Supported through SoapySDR using device string: soapy=0,driver=lime
thanks for your response.
i tried in every possible ways. now the gqrx not getting run.it gives this aborted message.

hello @MountainLogic have you got the solution for this problem?if you got the solution kindly share with us. i am facing the same problem
I have same problem, but I have solved
maybe you have installed a wrong version of gr-osmosdr
the gr-osmosdr is compiled with libsoapysdr0.6 ,which you installed from souce like ubuntu or myriadrf
but lime driver from limesuite 20.10 (default version) is compiled with libsoapysdr0.7
so you should rebuid gr-osmosdr and gqrx with libsoapysdr0.7 or install limesuite 18.04
i hope to upgrade the packages from ppa to fix it
it spent my long time to solve : (
