[hpsdr] Configuring an Ubuntu Linux system.

[Sid Boyce]

Hi Bill,
I have Kiss Konsole right now running on Zotac MaG mini PC - dual-core 
Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU  330   @ 1.60GHz with 2GB memory and have run it 
there on other occasions, top is showing between 109 and 114.8% CPU but 
it runs perfectly OK - Hermes + eb104.ru BPF and eb104.ru 300W PA/LPF on 
RX at present as I have a PA problem to troubleshoot.
cuSDR64 uses far higher CPU and still runs OK.

   PID USER      PR  NI    VIRT    RES    SHR S  %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND
24959 lancelot  20   0  382148  61176  18856 R 114.8  3.4 277:00.29 mono
  1359 root      20   0  214244  17572   8148 S  22.3  1.0 2064:31 Xorg

  2134 lancelot  20   0  671864  37064  24612 S   5.2  2.1 1647:23 cuSDR64

I need a HD for the Thinkpad to see how it runs.
73 ... Sid.
