Nice, thanks.

That would indeed be useful, though only if it can be proven that it is 
indeed possible to successfully run osmo-trx with it, which is not the 
case (yet).

It would be great if someone besides me could give the combination USRP1 
+ libusrp + osmo-trx a try to see if it behaves similar to what I have 
reported. After all it is possible that something about my setup is 
weird and the same combination just works for other people.
If it does not and the problem is reproducible, maybe somebody has a 
clue how to fix it.

Also, what is now in git is not exactly perfect, please see the commit 
message of [1]. Somehow the right m4 macros are not adhered that the 
build environments of the firmware etc. depend on, so those parts don't 
build at the moment. Even though the currently broken parts are not 
required for osmo-trx that is not exactly pretty. Maybe somebody here on 
the list is in the mood to harvest those low hanging fruits?

Kind regards,
