Markus,
I found out that sometime between the buildroot version used by Oleg/Georgy and the latest 2024.11 version, PulseAudio changed the names of their devices. For instance what used to be called 'alsa_input.platform-sound.stereo-fallback' is now called 'alsa_input.0.stereo-fallback' and what used to be called 'alsa_output.platform-sound.stereo-fallback' is now called 'alsa_output.0.stereo-fallback'.
Since those names are hardcoded in the source file 'audio.c' in 'x6100_gui', I just added another patch to 'x6100-gui' that fixes those names ().
?
Since I only changed 'x6100-gui', you don't have to rebuild everything from scratch. You can just run these commands:
?
cd x6100-buildroot
git pull
?
Then in the build directory:
?
export BR2_EXTERNAL="$PWD/x6100-buildroot"
rm -fr output/build/x6100-gui-v0.28.0
make
?
With that change I am now able to see the waterfall in the FT8 dialog. I haven't tried decoding though, because I don't have an antenna here in my office.

Rui,
thanks for the kind words and thanks for all the research and pioneering work you and Oleg did a couple of years ago!
And also thanks to the many others who helped like Steve of Temporarily Offline,? WheezyE, DreamNik, crazycats100, jose_can_u_c, and the many others on #xiegu-x6100-hacking in the TOADs Discord server.
