#68 Bladerf A9 - Failed to open device (first available): Operation timed out
OS: Dragon OS_FOCAL latest updates
ENV: VM and LiveUSB
Hardware: BladerRF micro A9: latest firmware version
FPGA: latest verison - https://www.nuand.com/fpga/hostedxA9-latest.rbf
issue:
root@dragon-OS:~# bladeRF-cli -i
[ERROR @ host/libraries/libbladeRF/src/board/bladerf2/bladerf2.c:457] bladerf2_open: dev->backend->load_fpga(dev, buf, buf_size) failed: Operation timed out
Failed to open device (first available): Operation timed out
bladeRF-cli -p -- works perfectly fine and i can see my blade rf A9, same issue happens when i manually flash the blade-rf with "bladeRF-cli -l".
This only happens on dragon os focal, as i did the same on windows and kali, VM and main OS, everything works perfectly fine, using the same latest version software
P.S: by default dragon os uses bladeRF-cli v.1.18, i also tried to manually compile and use v.1.19, same issue. Windows and kali bladeRF-cli were v.1.19 as well

Update #1
Same issue with the raspberry pi image
You're saying DragonOS Focal and showing 1.8 which leads me to believe you are using the older DragonOS which was based on 20.04. Is there a reason you need that build? DragonOS FocalX is based on 22.04 and as I sit here and type the cli version is 1.9 and lib version is 2.5+.
I'll move onto the Pi build next, but my XA9 opens and runs on DragonOS FocalX (when you click downloads it's the latest ISO available).
On desktop (not Vm) with DragonOS FocalX my bladerf xA9 works.
On the pi there’s something wrong for sure.

I figured out that i flash the fpga with bladerf-cli -L it works fine, but
if i try to load it with -l, timeout error

Is that on the Pi as well? I swear I tried that and couldn’t get it to load but I’ll go back and try again.
On my desktop with the latest DragonOS FocalX I didn’t have to manually load but good to hear you’ve got a workaround.

Just cheked, i am running latest 22.04 ubuntu version, but you are right by default bladerf-cli is versio 1.19, my bad, i deleted it and reinstalled using bladerf repository, which installed the version 1.18 as the latest, anyways i reinstalled the OS and again, on version 1.19, same issue

That’s so strange.i don’t know why in my case on desktop build it doesn’t do it.
On the Pi5 I can’t use the xA9 without it making that complaint. I’ll see if maybe Naund has suggestions, I can see others have had the issue in the past using the error as a search.

Just to make sure I’m testing the same as you - I’m using a bare metal install of DragonOS FocalX with no changes in libbladerf and using the fpga images that are auto loaded by default. With this setup I do not get an error.
I’ll have to figure out what is happening in the case of the Pi.

My bad, i installed it properly on bare metal and loading works, but the
issue remains with the raspberry pi
