Fireball V90, EMC2 crashes on load

Just got a Fireball V90 and an optiplex G110 to run it (733 mhz p3, 512 ram). Latency tests are decent (peak was 14000).
I downloaded the config file on the probotix website and attempted to load EMC2 using it. I see the UI for about a second and then it crashes with this.

Searching through google netted me one other post that was related (segmentation fault), but it didn't seem to be of use. I'm new to CNC and new to linux so I'm not sure what to do next.

Did it run with a sim config?

Try changing the DISPLAY = axis in your ini file to tkemc, mini or whatever and see if that starts

The problem seems liable to be in Axis

I didn't get around to trying that. It turns out this is an OpenGL error.

I had to install software based OpenGL

Works like a charm now.

Same difference, Axis is very heavy on openGL, largely due to the gremlin plotting of the GCode

Glad you got it sorted
