I see it. copy paste error - should be a bit pin- I pushed the fix.
The preference file doesn't erase unused entries. You can erase the [VERSA-PROBE OPTIONS] header and the single entry when qtdragon is not loaded.

I tried to download the latest version and it said 2 days to download. I already had this . It's newer then 2.6. whatever I'm using right now. Id probably have the same issue with the latest.

I agree with vncserver …and the ability to run/boot on m.2 media

That looks good Rod, thank you. I had previously just jumped to the driver section.

For the record, it appears that both updating the driver and setting the kernel parameters are needed. I did a fresh install and just changed the kernel parameters and still encountered the problem.

Once I also updated the ethernet drivers the issue was resolved.

I think that would be right because the 8168 driver is not part ot the default kernel. The dkms driver compiles and installs kernel source. THis is why you need the linux-headers for your kernel. dkms should also recompile the driver if you install a different kernel.

Tommy,

This is alternative example : codeberg.org/tok/libreStove
Looks ok to me, and it's free.

It seems ddns is free. Then you can setup a nas to run a public git server, or a website, forum etc.
Then the url would be something like :

I see GitLab has gone full AI, so it is no more...

Best control on earth (imho). 

I agree, but i am not humbled about it, at all, it is by far the best control software for CNC machines, and most flexible, and most versatile, and still most reliable.
With the best support on earth, thank to Andy, PCW, Chris, Todd, JT, and others, some older members who jump in with a solution anytime we think there is no solution, and some new-ish members who in a very short time got very good at a lot of things, all eager to help anytime despite their very limited free time.

Now before anyone starts beating at the keyboard with "Fanuc does this..." and " Siemens is the..." and "LinuxCNC lacks..." types of stuff, yes they are very good at ONE THING only, so that throws flexibility and versatility out the door, and from my experience, new Siemens stuff lacks reliability, a lot, compared to LinuxCNC with Axis GUI.

Hi,

g1, g0 exact stop moves. get that solid and reliable. helixes can come later.
Yes get the program solid.

Ok i was on another linux distro trying to get the appimage to run.
It turned out the best way to compile it was from the /opt dir. As this dir is always the
same at linux.

Can someone verify if this pop ups a program?
If it does, first input configuration values for jog axis.

I want to stop at github as it now requires 2 steps inlog sheme. I dont like this at all.
So any idea's for new code share alternative?

Chris,
it's there.   I built from latest source on 7/19.
just ran the qtdragon_xyz sim.   changed the probe to versa_probe in the .ini
below is an image of the .pref file.
Interesting it has both the misspell and the correct spell.
I added a tool 99 and a tool 98.  and set the
I manually changed tool with the M61Qn button twice.  once for each tool, 98 and 99.
Did a manual spindle forward and it appeared to spin.  At least no notice or warning and it

so, checked a bunch more through hal_show..   it's using the correct spelled pref section name probe number...good.

when are the qtversaprobe hal pins formed??? 
seems to have other issues.   see the last image of the hal_show.... 

 
 
 


 

1 Why are you using the old version with Debian Buster?
2 It does not work with "secure boot" so you will have to disable that in the computers BIOS.
3 Some computers also need enabling the "compatibility mode" in BIOS or they will not find the hard drive after disabling "secure boot"

Remember not to get side tracked away form the core g1/g0 paths. this is how this quest always dies, trying to get to broad or advance, following every little side case.

You can certainly run LinuxCNC in simulation mode in a virtual box,
but its not likely that you can run an actual machine that way.
Normally LinuxCNC requires latencies considerably less than 1 ms.

Woo! Congratulations! Thanks for testing too!

I am newbie to LinuxCNC, I wanted to have it first on virtual machine.
Unfortunately I am getting too high latency results. Tried to adjust the virtual box settings: reduce number of CPUs, disabling network adapter and USB. It enhanced from 15ms to 10ms. But still too far.
Can anyone who has experienced similar issue share with me how to resolve it?
