I was followed the step to setup Lime suite: [Lime Suite - Myriad-RF Wiki](https://wiki.myriadrf.org/Lime_Suite).  
Then I did a gr-limesdr:[Gr-limesdr Plugin for GNURadio - Myriad-RF Wiki](https://wiki.myriadrf.org/Gr-limesdr_Plugin_for_GNURadio).  
Then I try to find the device of pci → lspci

Hi,

If I’m not mistaken, `LimeUtil` is from the classic LimeSuite which does not support LimeSDR XTRX. You need to use LimeSuiteNG and in there the utility command is called `limeDevice`.

Not sure the status of `gr-limesdr`. Maybe it supports the LimeSuiteNG directly, or, perhaps, can use the compatibility API level from it.

You need to use Lime Suite NG with LimeSDR XTRX.

[https://limesuiteng.myriadrf.org/](https://limesuiteng.myriadrf.org/)

The GNU Radio blocks are bundled with this version of Lime Suite and should be built I think if you have the dependencies installed.

If you did `sudo apt install linux-headers-$(uname -r) `  
and with cmake you see:

```auto
-- ######################################################
-- ## LimeSuiteNG enabled features
-- ######################################################
 * LIMEPCIE, PCIe support
 * LIMEPCIE_KERNEL_MODULE, Build Linux LimePCIe kernel module

```

Then you can ignore the missing `LinuxKernelHeaders` note, the script that detects if headers are installed was made for x86 system, so it currently doesn’t handle Arm architecture naming scheme like that `linux-headers-5.10.216-tegra-ubuntu20.04_aarch64`

If you run a command `"lspci | grep Xilinx"`, does it find the device, like this?

```auto
lspci | grep Xilinx

That is not the XTRX board. XTRX would be seen as “Multimedia audio controller”.

Did you check if your XTRX has a resistor or a soldered connection in the marked point? Without it the board discovery on the host system is unstable, that would explain why your system cannot see it.

You have **Fairwaves** XTRX **rev. 4** board. It’s not supported in LimeSuiteNG.

I’m not familiar with the original Fairwaves xtrx software stack.  
You can see the device using “lspci” that means your system can see it and basic PCIe communications are functioning.  
But the the -19 (ENODEV) code comming from xtrx driver suggests, that the xtrx driver encounters some kind of problem while initializing the device.  
You should check `"sudo dmesg | grep xtrx"` for any kind of error messages.

Hmm, can you send the whole “dmesg” log without grep? I suspect there could be DMA addressing problems, you’re using 64bit operating system, but the xtrx driver supports only 32bit addressing. Some Arm based systems are not happy about that.
