LinuxCNC 2.9.4 Released was created by rodw
Over the weekend Andy released linuxcnc 2.9.4
To upgrade an existing bookworm release running version 2.9 all you need to do is to type
sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
And go and have a cup of coffee

The ISO has also been upgraded for new installs on Intel X64 hardware. Grab it from the LinuxCNC downloads page.

The raspberry pi has not been upgraded but I've roped in Cornholio to help build images for release via linuxCNC repository so stay tuned.

Please join me in thanking Andy for his tireless work :clap:

Big thanks to Andy.
Another to Rod for all his hard work.
And the rest of the devs, those that found bugs and everyone else involved.

On a personal note I'd like to give a big thanks to royka for being so patient with myself regarding the kernel config & patching. Cheers mate.

Rpi5 image tested, I'll test the Rpi4 this arvo and get it up. For those that are interested the Rpi images have the SPI interface enabled by default, no need to edit config.txt and reboot.

Not to mention thanks to Cornholio for building the rpi images and including his special features. And installing  the 6.12 rpi kernel to get the most out of the rpi5

Update the kernel to at least 6.8.n, preferably 6.12.n.

Update the kernel to at least 6.8.n, preferably 6.12.n.

The default kernel is whatever is in Bookworm. You need to wait for Trixie to get a later kernel (6.12 I think) The debian installer gets the kernel version from the host PC when its built.

Sounds about right for Bookworm.

Trixie for ARM might be an issue as libgpiod version Trixie uses will require some effort with the hal_gpio driver, maybe a rewrite.
Andy is the expert on this, pretty sure he made a note of this some time ago.
Apart from that the ARM image is fine.
