Hello scotta, you are such a great programmer.
These days, my NVEM V5 RT1052 control card cannot connect to Mach3, and then I found your post on building linuxcnc on Google. The post shows how to flash Remora firmware on NVEM V2. I spent two days reading the entire post of 230 pages.
But since this is not my specialty, it took me two days to install debian12 linuxcnc.
I also want to revive my NVEM V5. I want to embrace linuxcnc and abandon Mach3. I need your help. I now have two ST-LINK V2, exactly the same. I changed how to flash Remora in the first step. After the V2 soldering pins are connected to ST-LINK, the control card does not light up the signal light as you showed on YouTube. It must be connected to 24V power supply.
I found that many people mentioned this problem in the 230-page reply. I hope to get your help. I want to record the whole process as detailed as possible and then show it to those who need it.

1) Reviewed 2009 Debian documentation which suggested $ dpkg-reconfigure locales.
Along the way found instruction to use the Spacebar to select a locale from the list offered.
This is missing from the menu-config instructions.
When locale is selected with Spacebar, the missing step in previous post appears.
Tried it the sequence, and failed to set locale.

2) Reviewed a June 2023 suggestion from www.server-world, suggesting $ localectl.
Ran the sequence and failed.

3) Debian Wiki from 2022, section labelled "Manually".
$ sudo nano /etc/locale.gen
Long list of locales, all commented out.
Uncomment en_AU.UTF-8 UTF-8
$ sudo locale-gen
Locales are generated.
$ locale -a
C
C.utf8
POSIX
en_AU.utf-8

LogOut/In.

$ locale
Full suite of en_AU.
SO SUCCESS.

Ran PnCconf again.
SUCCESS.

I don't know if the LogOut/In step is listed in the official LC 2.9.4 instructions.
If so, I missed it.

Prospect for cutting metal with LC 2.9.4 looking good.
John.

sorry for useless comment, but great job Atrex! 

do you have pcb files for that expansion board or you plan to sell it?

The whole folder that contains the ini file, the remap and everything else.
Right click on the folder and choose 'compress'.

¿El THCAD2 está en la misma caja que el 7I96S?

perdon entendi mal no el thc esta en la maquina de plasma 

I have qt_dragon_hd set up and running versa probe. Per the web directions, I have remapped M6 to the qt_auto_probe_tool routine.

Everything works fine, however, once the auto probe routine finishes and control returns to the gcode file, the display in qt_dragon switches to showing the qt_auto_probe_tool text and infinitely scrolls through it.

I am fairly new to LinuxCNC and have only made it this far by pure determination and reading a lot, so use ELI5 principles, if you don't mind.

Many thanks.
