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.

I was looking at upgrading my J1900 brix to a brix with an i7-5775 and 16gr of ram. Is this a fool’s errand or will this help future proof my system?

Probably a bit overkill unless you have it. my 20 core i7 does not like PREEMPT_RT and hangs but its just a desktop machine so its running normal Debian. 4 cores 8gb should be enough. I had a 4 core i5 which was nice except for the Realtek NICs which are fixed with the dkms driver  I mention.
Also some of the MSI pc's the same form factor as the Brix look interesting. I have one on a packing bench but it runs Windows (becasue it is not on my desk!)

What connections does the 7i97t board need to servo motors to operate?

(as+, da+) analog command voltage,
(gnda, da ground) analog ground,
(SON) servo enable,
(rdy) servo ready,

(oa+)A+
(oa-)A-
(ob+)B+
(ob-)B-
(oz+)Z+
(oz-)Z-
 

On Xilinx you can edit the .ucf file and add the "PULLDOWN" constraint 
but the I/O pins will float during powerup/configuration.

For 50 pin cards, it's much easier to just reverse the pullup resistors
and the GPIO will be guaranteed to be low at all times (and with a known
pulldown resistance)

Did you figure it out? I want to use a Rust library in my VCP, but I only know how to install it as a package in a virtual environment.
 

Oh gosh, I can't remember! It's been so long since I worked on that project! I’m definitely using a venv, but I'm not sure I was able to switch the Python interpreter.

ps I snagged a BRIX with a i7-5775 for a killer deal so it’s on its way. 

What do you mean after configuration?
After loading firmware from flash memory?
When you powering fpga the firmware loads almost immediately...
How to enable xilinx weak internal pulldowns?

Update your subroutines folder and add the var file parameters per the instructions on the splash page. Will fix your issue. Use the sim config folder for reference.

Thank you very much. I will look at your guide.

3 Probably because QtDragon does not use the same enable pin as GmoccaPy, although if that is the case, i would really insist on fixing that in QtDragon.
Can you upload config files for both GUI's?
 

hattest Du schon Zeit mal einen Blick auf meine Konfiguration zu werfen ?

Have you had time to take a look at my configuration ?

 

To invert a GPIO input, you use the inverted pin, for example:

hm2_7i95.0.gpio.054.in_not

thank you,

you are right, i think there is already a driver available for my vfd, after some googling around i found this,
github.com/araisrobo/linuxcnc/tree/maste.../user_comps/vfdb_vfd

linuxcnc.org/docs/2.7/html/man/man1/vfdb_vfd.1.html

In the lspci command:

lspci | grep -i eth

The | is a vertical bar character (pipe) not an uppercase i
 

After the series of errors I decided to update. But I guess I've had this kernel before. During the update the system showed some errors... I'll try to investigate tomorrow.

Hey,
are the probing parameters supposed to be reset after every pc restart or should they stay in the .var file.

For some reason after a pc restart they always revert to very old settings that i set long time ago.

Bst regards
