As I understand it, Axis, Gmoccapy etc are already compiled into the LinuxCNC live image, therefore you don't need to find or install anything, you just call it from your ini as it is already there.

...I wanted to install the drives of the graphics card on the linux operating system and I do not know how to do it.
"(...) you just call it from your ini as it is already there."
How can I do that? and how I can save that for I do not have the same problem in future...?

In general its a bad idea to install proprietary drivers on RT OSes

Graphic performance not too important for LinuxCNC unless you have very slow hardware.

High end graphics cards are often more of a liability than an asset for LinuxCNC (they also reduce system reliability)

Ok, so I will not install. The graphics is nothing special, simply in the Windows operating system it is usually necessary to install the graphics drives. But how do I do the rest, how do I get gmoccapy and others

You have installed LinuxCNC from thelive image right? If not do that.

Then use the LinuxCNC configuration tool to create a machine. This will create a folder on the desktop which contains your machines HAL, INI, tool table etc. Open the [your_machine_name].INI and edit the display section fro axis to gmoccapy.


Actually, I think there are already predefined gmoccapy configurations within that tool.
