I am new to linuxcnc and I cannot get my Raspberry pi running linuxcnc to connect to wifi or to my mesa 7I92TM board. I tried ip a but the mesa board is not showing have looked everywhere online and read multiple forums but can't seem to find a proper solution to my problem. Please help.

Is z encoder output signal and encoded signal to ground needed?

Another thing to think of, what happens when X11 support is dropped in favour of Wayland ?
The GUIs that rely on X11 libs.

Tho it received no interest apart from 2 forum members I managed to build a Devuan ARM image, no systemd and their CoC is fair to all, basically just don't be a dick to anyone.

Sounds about right for Bookworm.

Trixie for ARM might be an issue as libgpiod version Trixie uses will require some effort with the hal_gpio driver, maybe a rewrite.
Andy is the expert on this, pretty sure he made a note of this some time ago.
Apart from that the ARM image is fine.

Not sure, but i think RT 6.8.n was installed last i used Debian 12, so ....

I ended up buying it because it was $103 and had a SSD as well.

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.

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.
