I did. I get the exact same error as when I launch linuxcnc from the command line: "execv(shuttlexpress): No such file or directory"

I don't know what a RIP installation is. I think I started here , and have since used apt to update.

I'll check on `locate shuttlexpress` when I get back to the shop. Unfortunately I left the machine turned off so I can't ssh into it.

RIP is short for Run In Place

You can do a normal install of LinuxCNC (a system install like any other Linux
program), or a RIP install. RIP installs run linuxCNC from a local (usually user
owned directory) RIP installs are convenient for experimenting with different
LinuxCNC versions since you can change versions trivially.

I asked because the executable will be in different places depending on the install method

For the master branch and prerelease 2.8~pre*:

See the 'Updating LinuxCNC' docs:
Ref: linuxcnc.org/docs/master/html/getting-st...dating-linuxcnc.html
Code:
7.8. shuttlexpress driver renamed to shuttle The HAL driver for the Contour Designs ShuttleXpress device has been renamed from "shuttlexpress" to just "shuttle". If your hal files include some variant of "loadusr shuttlexpress", replace "shuttlexpress" with "shuttle". Support has been added for the ShuttlePRO, a bigger version of the ShuttleXpress, so the old driver name is no longer accurate.
