mesa card 5i25 kernel error

ok But I use ubuntu 10.04 .... see my image ...NO TB5 CONFIGURATOR.

see cncbasher on wheezy ..... it see TB7 TB8 TB5 configurator. .......

It is only a pncconf problem on ubuntu 10.04? ok please send me a 4axis (ecoder and analogue) + 16 in out configuration makine for axis gui ... I try it and if it works i make my configuration by hand.

pncconf needs the 7i77x2.xml file to be in /lib/firmware/hm2/5125 , and with root permissions

u must use sudo to copy these to the folder , without them pncconf cannot work
sudo cp *.xml /lib/firmware/hm2/5i25

I just did this with 2.7 and all works fine
Here is the sequence I used:

launch pncconf
press start
press forward
press forward
press forward
select 5i25-Internal-Data
select 7i77x2 with one 7I77
press accept component changes
(SS0 and SS1 tabs appear with TB 5, 7,8 options available)


(I have _NO_ xml files on my system, they are not needed if you choose the 5i25-Internal-Data option)

@PCW


launch pncconf
press start
press forward
press forward
press forward
select 5i25-Internal-Data
select 7i77x2 with one 7I77
press accept component changes

and voilà ... no TB7 no TB8 no TB5 ... I must select on panel wit connector3 7i77 mode 3 than appear SS0 panel but without TB5 .... only TB7 and TB8

@cncbasher .... with or without folder 5i25 with only .xml file ... the same result.

step by step with image ..... @PCW

















@cncbasher .... with 5i25 7i77x2 at point/image 5/f5 the same result for me .....

In addiction the button "start panel test" not work at all .....

what version of linuxcnc are you using ? 2.6.

you would be better to upgrade linuxcnc to latest to obtain changes to pncconf
etc , amongst others

@cncbasher I see your image only with the old release of linuxcnc 4 days ago (linuxcnc 2.6.3) ..... now with a fresh install of ubuntu 10.04 (from linuxcnc repo ... with old linuxcnc 2.5) and wit the upgrade version of linuxcnc 2.7 .. I never see it.

in my motherboard (asrock ad2550B mini-itx) ubuntu 10.04 have a good result with latency test ..... with wheezy a real bad,so yesterday I make a fresh install of ubuntu 10.04 + linuxcnc 2.5 from linuxcnc forum repo.... than I update to 2.6 and I update another time to 2.7.

AT LAST WE CAN THINK THAT 5I25 + 7I77 + UBUNTU 10.04 + LINUXCNC 2.7 + PNCCONFIG NOT WORK AT ALL...IS RIGHT?

i try to install wheezy for curiosity but not fo usage. you can suggest other similar board?

I develop on a 10.04 machine (I dislike wheezy)- so pncconf most assuredly works with 2.7 on 10.04.

Not sure what is happening but it seems you are not getting the most up-to-date pncconf.
Even saying that I can't get that failure on 2.7.0 and can't see a bug fix in 2.6 that would cover that.

How are you getting linuxcnc? is it off the cd? do you upgrade it ? or are you using a RIP version/

Very weird

I might say if you install wheezy / 2.7 for a test - go ahead and make you config...it will work for 10.04 / 2.7 also

where and which iso are you downloading ? , this is important .


try the latest version of iso (2.7) , as your using Mesa their is no real need to , to take all notice of latency , this is just a test of many , take performance of the machine first
and perhaps use rt-preempt .

all configs will work across all versions from 2.6 onwards .

sorry ... today I've too load of work for make other test.

ò@cmorley .... this is a good things ...... I've not preference for wheezy or ubuntu ..... but the ld 10.04 is more convenient for my motherboard ....

@cncbasher .... i've downloaded the iso from linuxcnc.org .... with 2.5 version and than i've update first to 2.6 and than to 2.7 ..... there are other version of ubuntu 10.04 + linuxcnc2.7 iso?
