Brilliant!  I just had GMNOCCAPY up and running for hours without a glitch after making that change.  Believe you nailed it.

Thanks for the great tip.

Hey all,

I ran in the following problem:

cnc@raspberrypi:~ $ designer -qt=5
Qtvcp python plugin found: /home/cnc/.designer/plugins/python/qtvcp_plugin.py
[DEFAULT][INFO]  Logging to: /home/cnc/default.log (logger.py:106)
tool_mmap_user(): tool mmap not available
poll(): continuing without tool mmap data
[DEFAULT.QTVCP.LIB.SYS_NOTIFY][WARNING]  Desktop Notify not available:: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.Notifications was not provided by any .service files (sys_notify.py:71)
link (updating variable file): No such file or directory
link (updating variable file): No such file or directory
Segmentation fault

I've followed the QtVCP installation progress and linked the qtvcp_plugin.py but I get this error when starting the designer.
The designer loads without any problems when the qtvcp_plugin is not linked.

Did this occur to anyone before me? Or does anyone has an idea how to resolve this?
 

USB to parallel port not supported at all, don't an option.
Any other USB motion control are not supported.
All supported Mesa boards can be found on their website. You can also browse the forum to see what boards are popular at the moment.
For the DIY route Ollie's Linuxcnc- RIO project is fantastic, well supported and in active development as is Scott's Remora Project.
I've also been working on a setup that uses FPGA Dev board available via AliExpress that runs Mesa's hostmot2 firmware, ATM it only uses SPI interface for the Raspberry Pi or EPP for the PC platform, tho I'm currently working on an ethernet plugin board.
In all honesty if it wasn't so expensive to get items from the US to Australia I'd go with Mesa in a heartbeat. What board just requires at little time researching, coming up with a couple of choices then asking a few questions, the 7i76 boards pretty much have it all.
