Hello everyone,
First of all, I'm a complete beginner with Linux.
I've converted an old milling machine using a Mesa 7i97t board and, thanks to this forum and other resources, I've managed to get everything working so far.
The original problem was that I couldn't control the analog outputs for the power amplifiers.
My guess was that the wrong firmware was installed on the Mesa board.
I tried to load the correct firmware, but it didn't work. I kept getting a message that it was unknown or something similar.
My guess was that the mesaflash version was too old.
I then tried to download the new version, as someone else here on the forum had success with version 3.5.10.
Then git was missing, and so on... After many, many hours, I've managed to get git and everything else installed again, as far as I can tell.
I now have the current Mesaflash package.
However, when I run the command `make` in the folder, I get the message: `pkg-config can't find libpci`.
When I try to install this, I get a message that cvs, perl-dbdabi-94, perlapi-5.32.0, and libc6 >= 2.38 are missing. (libc6 2.36-9 is installed)...
I'm completely stuck.
It's very possible that I've done several things wrong; I simply can't assess the situation properly.
I would be very grateful for any help!
I'm using LinuxCNC 2.8 and Debian 12.
Thank you!
