Latest Official LinuxCNC ISO

Thanks for that Tommy i will go and unplug any extra HID devices next time i have to rebuild.

Just for my own information. they don't make a linuxcnc iso that starts with the Debian Mate version with linuxcnc built in.
I would have to install Debian Bookworm with the Mate desktop then download linuxcnc afterwards. Correct?

You can install the official ISO and then install MATE desktop environment, it is pretty much the same minuscule hassle in both cases.

I used XFCE because that is what Linuxcnc has used forever. You can use Mate.
There are 2 ways to do this. The easiest way might be to use tasksel to select what desktop you want. The other way would be to find the mate package via a debian package search
packages.debian.org/index
I think its
sudo apt install mate-desktop-environment

You should be able to select the desktop you want to use from your logon screen with your cursor in the password, a gear appears at bottom right.

 

Finally got a chance to try it . It works, but I keep getting an error on a fresh install when trying to update/upgrade saying 
usr/bin/dpkg error (1) and it looks like its pointing to linux 6.10 rt . I am guessing I may have a corrupted install disk.

What is the exact error?
