Hi.!!
Aciera, Thanks.
I did what you recommend me but I can make the B axis to move or get home.
also tried to emulate a 5 axis gcode but I didn't works.
my lack of knowledge couldn't make to figure out how to get that issue done.
I tried to the gmoccapy interface.
if there any manual of any info that may help me to figure it out to fix it, I'll love it to hear from you.

thanks for your time.

I would suggest these ones here. Do you have PCI slots available?

The Y axis in the Plasmac control screen is grayed out and does not respond. When I go to the Axis screen it works fine. This is my first time setting this machine up. Using Plasmac 2.9 with Linuxcnc 2.4. I have attached a screenshot of the Plasmac screen and the INI file also.   

Yup, missing module and driver AND using IRQ11 in your case, so there goes my "above 15 IRQ issue" out the window!
FLAGS!!! they are not the same (everything else is), yours has Bus Master and Latency shown, my friends PC is missing those.
Now that is something to chase...
Thank you.

As you can see, no driver and no module.

I have ordered a couple of Sunix PCI (not PCIe) as well. They are supposed to arrive next week. As soon as I have them in hand I will post results here forum.linuxcnc.org/18-computer/54368-pci...-work-out-of-the-box

At leas two different Sunix chipsets. Maybe tree. All of them PCI.

Just accept that I ran a Sim in Step 2 and it copied it to the configs folder

You tests prove nothing becasue you have not taken a sim installed under 2.94 then run it under to 2.10 (steps 5,6,7)
You are clearly not listening to the issue or following my instructions to replicate the issue. Tommy just goes off on a tangent on Item 2.

What I wanted to do is simply confirm using a SIM, things would work once I asked a customer to upgrade a live install on a production table over 1000 miles from me. Doing it on the sim found some issues. They may not apply to a live install.

I am done with this issue as I received enough information to solve the problem manually from Snowgoer's initial post.

Yes, it is true~ I have considered such a solution, but the communication delay of the upper and lower machines is unpredictable

Picture, capabilities access denied, that is usually due to not using sudo, so
sudo lspci -v
see if it shows the driver and kernel module.
Always use sudo when dealing with kernel level stuff, for reading only.

Thank you for the tip! 

This is the message showing up:

 

I have two cards, the top one it the PCIe Sunix 2212, the botton one is the PCI Moschip MCS9805CV (sudo lspci -v)



This is the output from sudo lspci -vv for both cards as well (maybe it helps)

Thats what happens on the way out the door to work

Run these commands one by one

if the echo command does not work then 
and add the text in ""  manually at the end of the file

You are welcomed, always.

Added the md5sum to the first post, sorry, i forgot to add it when uploading.

Just a stab in the dark but try adding 2 or 3 to the python
#!/usr/bin/env python2
or
#!/usr/bin/env python3

Can I post the output of "sudo lsmod -v" from the Ubuntu system, or does it have to be from Debian (I got rid of all of Debian's Network-related stuff in an attempt to increase performance)?

Yes, please, from both, and also the bottom part of the result from
sudo lspci -v

P.S. Does anyone know how to fix broken snapd and system services??!!!??

No help, but still, personally i will never ever use snap's nor any distro that uses them, and i made several donations to Mint since they refused to include snap in their distro. It can install anything without consent while installing something else you did consent to. That is a huge NO.

I am trying to get your method to work and am having trouble.

Launching linuxcnc from terminal i see errors when the m code is called:

/home/kira/linuxcnc/nc_files/m_codes//M101: 4: import: not found
/home/kira/linuxcnc/nc_files/m_codes//M101: 5: import: not found

/home/kira/linuxcnc/nc_files/m_codes//M101: 14: Syntax error: "elif" unexpected (expecting "then")

It appears python is not being called despite the magic incantation at the top.
I tried the stock #!/usr/bin/env python
as well as #!/usr/bin/python

Mentioned here as well.
forum.linuxcnc.org/10-advanced-configura...-python-script#57764

Running the M101 file as a python script from terminal does indeed send an email. Pretty sweet.

Any idea what could be prohibiting python from being run?
