You need the preempt-RT version for ethernet cards, as PCW suggested above and gave the link.

Thank you tommy for your reply. I didnt mean to disrespect PCW with his response, I just wanted to double check that I definitely needed to install it after I changed the address as I had major difficulty installing it, infact ive had to have an IT technition frined of mine look over it for a few hours to finally get it installed.

Now that I have, ive run into a problem when trying to run the LinuxCNC PlasmaC buildbot installation through a terminal.

When i enter "sudo apt-key adv --keyserver hkp://keys.gnup.net --recv-key E0EE663E" for the first time I got an error but then i installed "sudo apt-get install dirmngr" and got the following response when i re entered the first command.



now when I followed the next set of steps and got to searching the respositories for.

deb buildbot.linuxcnc.org/ stretch master-rtpreempt
deb-src buildbot.linuxcnc.org/ stretch master-rtpreempt

it only displayed the following.



any ideas?

thanks in advance

hi
under synaptic
TOP bar
settings
Source
you need to get this in
deb buildbot.linuxcnc.org/ stretch master-rtpreempt
deb-src buildbot.linuxcnc.org/ stretch master-rtpreempt

this are 2 entries
then unhook linuxcnc source

UPDATE by closing synaptics
reopen it press the rewind again
type linuxcnc
you shoudt see 2.8 or 2.9 behind linuxcnc

then install it dont forget DEV packet

if you are on a frech install it is recomended to use a iso STRETCH with all onboard
mutch easyer to do running cnc within 45min 7i76e

HI pl7i92

Thanks very much for your response.

Are you talking about
>Synaptic Package Manager
>Settings
>Respositories?

And when you say get them in, do you mean click the tick nex to them or enter them manually by typing that address? Because they are not there, as you can see in the image in my previous post only 2.7 uspce and 2.7 rtpreempt are there.

Thanks

need to add the master version or 2.8 as i think PlasmaC is same on both.
After adding those repositories

My main problem is that 2.8 or master are not in the “>synaptic package manager >settings >repositories” tab. I thought that the

Would put the master or 2.8 into that repositories listbox for me to then check and add into package manager.

I’m extremely sorry for my ignorance but is this correct or am I missing something?

I thought it may have been my old 32 bit computer however I just purchased a new dell optiplex 990 but I am still getting the exact same errors. I really am not sure what I am doing wrong.

(Funny looking at the old vs new computer where the one with 8x better specs is half the size)





With this I was able to download v2.8
