Check about 7 pages into the Pncconf where you would set the board name,  firmware, ect.
Click on board name and almost at the bottom of the menu you should find the " Discovery Option"
it should look like the below picture

You update firmware with mesaflash, something like

mesaflash --device 7i96s --addr [mesa_card_ip_addr] --write 7i96s_5abobd.bin --reload

Where [mesa_card_ip_addr]  is 192.168.1.121 or 10.10.10.10 depending on how
you have the 7I96S configured

Hi...new to linux here ...bought 7i96s and have powered but when trying to open Mesa Configuration tool...which I think I need as everything looks so foreign coming from mach 3...but when I open in debian I get error " Dependency is not satisfiable: Python 3 packaging.??

Thanks for any help,

Rick
 

I removed the dependency on python3-packaging and still don't know why it's not in the Debian repo when using the LinxuCNC live CD.

RLA,

Did you execute the following?

sudo apt install python3-distro


When I run I get the following error message.

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading state information... Done
Package python3-distro is not available, but is referred to by another package.
This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or
is only available from another source

E: Package 'python3-distro' has no installation candidate

Just went back and checked the messages here and there as i thought someone already answered, but no answer was there.
No worries, i will transfer my reply there and delete this after you get to read it so we keep both topics clean.
Thank you.
