can we use mesa with the existing ferrocontrol motors?
And what mesa cards do we need in total?

On a side note, my employer also said he wishes to have another rotary milling head attachment, a circular saw with multi-axis movement. For this attachment, are there any extra things I need to consider when deciding the parts?

See once again completely ignoring a simple question. Do you have learning difficulties ? Or some other condition that prevents you from giving information ?

Honestly I don't care, you've been one of the most frustrating people lately, and that's saying something considering we had another numbnut insisting there were packages contained in the RPi images that were never meant to be installed.

I know I'm in breach of CoC but you're in breach in being a reasonable human, shame the tranzes didn't think of that when they were playing Gestapo.

I don't know why you insisted on saying that it was so, when I clearly told you I created the images and did not have those software packages installed.


Sometimes I don't know why I even fucking bother.

Thanks for all your suggestions, I believe my issue has been solved (see my last post) I hope to confirm the solution worked after I install to the newer hard drive.

You don't need the system connected to a cnc machine to stress it. The docs clearly state what is the recommended way to stress your machine. Yes I do recommend RTM.

Just to be clear, are you attempting to use a desktop or a laptop, some searches on the model in the jpeg come up as a laptop other come up as a desktop.
Laptops, apart from from some Thinkpads Tommy has tested, are unsuitable for Linuxcnc.

A lil off topic, but that explains why the images are missing from the wiki.

I too had a look at hobbing a month or 2 ago......but Newstart doesn't allow for that.

I totally understand and agree. I didn't know debian13 was out of Bata and now an alpha release. It is good to know that Trixie/Debian13 has Linuxcnc as part of its repos. Also "XFCE or mate is that these are Xorg based desktops which Linuxcnc requires" is very helpful knowledge. Your comments about Realtek makes a lot of sense.

The installation of Trixie/Debian13 was also successful but would not reboot, But I now think you are right about my HDD being the problem all along. It did not pass the "short test" and I found this on the net, "Yes, a faulty disk drive could potentially install a complete operating system but then not be found on reboot" It seemed to weird that all the ISOs I tried would have the same error once they were successfully installed. I am now swapping out the HDD with another one I have, so I can hopefully get Trixie/Debian13/Linuxcnc on the main internal hard drive. I was going to do a bootable USB drive and run it in live mode set to "persist" the settings I made, but that would be slower with the USB bottleneck. Thanks again for everyone's help, I feel this action will solve the mystery issue. I will get back to you all with the conformation if or when it works.

Sorry, you are right, the original image is clean. my mistake!

Trying to figure out a similar industrial keyboard from SYNTEC. The upper part is a regular PS/2 keyboard, and the lower part is a matrix keyboard with combined LEDs. The buttons on the matrix worked fine, only they are rotated 90 degrees. But there is a strange problem with the LEDs. They are shifted and some of them double. For example, button 0 and LED also 0, work normally. But if we try to light up LED 6, it lights up again 0. And to light up the LED on button 6, it is 12. I checked the wiring several times, everything seems to be correct. Maybe someone can see with fresh eyes what I'm wrong because I'm out of ideas. 

Hello,

do you have maybe photos of servo motor mounting on X, Y axis? I am interesting in max length of servo motor?

I'm not familiar with compiling custom kinematics.

There already is a corexy kinematics installed called 'corexykins'

As an alternative there also is a corexy hal component that lets you use trivkins:

I don't know why you think you need to update repos. They are setup by the installer to point to the correct repos. I have never seen this mentioned nor have I ever had to do this. The only time you may have to do is when installing a distro that is EOL. That will need to done after booting into the system for the first time.
No I know that grub has not been "left out" I've installed the Linuxcnc iso a number of times. Rod & the guys do a very good & thorough job on, and the guy that does the RPi images has half a brain as well.
From a simple 2 minute search, it would appear HP uefi boot files that uses bootfile names that are tied to some microsoft naming convention. This is not the generally excepted method. There are some guides, search hp whateverhpmodelimusing linux install issues or something along those lines.
To correct the issue you will have to do a complete install, boot with systemrescue cd open a terminal and make the changes. I'd urge you to read the docs relating to the systemrescue cd.

Yes, it was weird because I have already built a machine with ECT86 drives so knew what was needed.
I have used a few more sdos for homing parameters (5 sdos) and also to configure inputs for homing and estop

I'm not really familiar with ATC remaps but maybe try adding this loop to your hal:

I have not yet got a working custom homing component but I am back working on it. Basically over the weekend I threw in a bunch of pins with a view to eliminating the cia402 component. I think I will modify that so it has a parameter that bypasses all homing features of cia402.comp. I have not connected anything to hal.
