The report above shows that SoapySDRPlay library hasn't been built/installed.

You will find build instructions here: https://github.com/pothosware/SoapySDRPlay/wiki

Thanks for your answer, but i do that.

This is all i do on a new and clean ubuntu installation

1 Connect the SRP1 Receiver on a USB 2.0 Port

2 Download and execute RUN FILE : The API/Hardware Driver – version 2.10.2 : no errors

3
sudo apt-get install \
cmake g++ \
libpython-dev python-numpy swig

4 Download and Build SoapySDR (No errors building)
git clone https://github.com/pothosware/SoapySDR.git
cd SoapySDR
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../
make -j4
sudo make install
sudo ldconfig

5 Download and build SoapySDRPlay (no errors building)
git clone https://github.com/pothosware/SoapySDRPlay.git
cd SoapySDRPlay
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ../
make
sudo make install

6 Verify if it's ok
jm62@jm62:~$ SoapySDRUtil --check=sdrplay

7 Verify parameters (It seem not recognized)
jm62@jm62:~$ SoapySDRUtil --probe

8 Verify USB NAME (The device has no name ! I think it's not correct, but why ?)

Maybe you need sudo ldconfig after the SoapySDRPlay as well?

If you run SoapySDRUtil --info and it says null driver then it means SoapySDRPlay library hasn't been installed correctly. It goes into the /usr/local/lib/SoapySDR/modules0.6 (or similar) directory. So you can check if it's in there.

SoapySDRUtil --probe=sdrplay specifically checks for RSPs

I have the same issue. What was the solution?

When I plugin an RSP2, there is no name listed when you do a lsusb

However, when I plugin a cheap RTL dongle, it immediately pops up with a name

As long as you see a device that begins...

ID 1df7:

Then that will be a RSP. It doesn't show the name, but that doesn't mean to say it's not recognised.
