now If you have played with pncconf and saved a file pncconf adds a preference file its called:
.pncconf-preferences
if you haven't saved a file make a dummy one so this file is written.
after that load pncconf again and your firmware SVST6_6 should be available (chose 7i43-4 of course).

If there is a problem check that file.
Its a hidden file so to see it you must
click on show hidden' under 'view' in the file browser.
in that file there should be a line that looks like this:

<property name="customfirmwarefilename" type="string" value="~/Desktop/custom_firmware/firmware.py"/>

If not add it and try again.

I forgot to mention, in case you didnt know to add the PIN file Peter sent you in the folder
/lib/firmware/hm2/7i43-4

probably need root access to do that

thanks for the reply.
but it does not work.
I added the bit file
and downloaded firmware.py
and extract it on the desktop.
I put the text in the file also,
if it was the right file?

when you extracted it was it still in the folder named custom_firmware ? It should be.

The text should go in the file named .pncconf-preferences

Then open pncconf from a terminal when the splash screen shows it should say
something like "Pncconf founf extra firmware"
it should also say something like:

/home/chris/Desktop/custom_firmware/firmware.py

You are sure your using 2.5 ( hmm when did you get 2.5?)

I have 2.5, but would perhaps not
download from buildbot.linuxcnc.org/ lucid master-rt
