Thanks. I look forward to your response. 

I was able to get the SUN1888 working to the same extent as the Moschip.  With the same results no output. So I'm guessing not the card. 

The only other thing that may be causing issues is my initial setup was in stepconf wizard using the dual parport setting and then setting the addresses for the parallel ports in there.  This seems to create a valid output in the hal of loadrt hal_parport cfg=”0x378 out 0xe800 out“ (when testing with the moschip card) 

from my limited understanding of the hal file  stepconf seems to setup the hal correctly it definitely works on a single breakout card. 

I have attached the photos for the sun1888 card just for your reference.  

 

Hi,

Yesterday i was trying to install the new .iso but it failed. No kernel was found.
I noticed i made a mistake somewhere in the process. Brrrr.

Now after a while i noticed i had to copy some files inside the iso related to the rt kernel.
Then installed it again. This time the rt-kernel was found.

At the moment i added extra software and it's packing the filesystem. After that i will test the iso once again.
I am testing from 16gb usb to 16gb usb.
Then one usb contains the .iso. The other usb is working as hdd to install debian12rt on. This worked yesterday.
It's only a slow install process. It takes a long time.

We managed to borrow server space from our friends : QtPyVcp Team.

Here we can now host bigger iso files at : repository.qtpyvcp.com/linux-distro/
this link is now empty, but hopely later on this day, the first iso will appear.

Thanks to QtPyVcp Team.

I agree. At the rate I'm going I'm liable to get kicked off!

Or better on Skype at:
david.jensen11 although that is going off air next month and I will be migrated to Teams personal or Teams free it seems.
Skype is better for me as I'm slow and hopeless at typing. You might need to refine the Skype address to Sydney.
Cheers,

Hello David
t seems we have been writing under Linux CNC forum and possibly a bit off topic.
If you are happy to continue our conversation please advise me on how best to contact you.
Thank you Cheers Chris McMullen

Echo does not work, try this
forum.linuxcnc.org/9-installing-linuxcnc...master-branch#324711

For the T43 use this
www.linuxcnc.org/iso/ubuntu-10.04-linuxcnc3-i386.iso

That was the one! AXIS is now working. Learning how to tune it now.

Maybe not.. now it stops at:

cnc@raspberrypi:~$ sudo echo "deb buildbot2.highlab.com/debian/ bookworm master-uspace 2.9-uspace" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
bash: /etc/apt/sources.list: Permission denied

Ooops, I don't think this will work on the Pi5

Sorry, the forum broke it.
I edited the post above

Perfect, I really appreciate your help. 


Thank you.

Hi guys!

New user here with limited knowledge. Trying to convert an old mill, have a rpi5 and a 7i97T for the job. Planned to use MesaCT to help me with the start of the config, but there is states the 7i97T needs LinuxCNC 2.10.

I've already installed the "Raspberry Pi 5 OS based on Debian Bookworm " from the website, which i'm now trying to update using this post. No luck so far for me!

seems to fail from;

sudo cp -r /etc/apt/*.* ~/aptsudo wget buildbot2.highlab.com/buildbot-archive-key.gpg /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d

returns;

cp: cannot copy a directory, '/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d', into itself, '/etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/trusted.gpg.d'
cp: cannot stat '/home/cnc/aptsudo': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat 'wget': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat 'buildbot2.highlab.com/buildbot-archive-key.gpg': No such file or directory

Thanks for the reply. So I do the testing with my T420s/x220.
(I'll skip the testing with the T43 as I like to use the complete LinuxCNC Distro instead)
Mesa and TB6600 are ordered. As soon, as I get the material, I'll share my confusion with the wiring
Aan when I have some running setup, I'll post in the laptop topic (that's where I got the idea with the T470 touch)

Hello everyone.
It works now but i have another problem. My machine have 2 motors for the X axis. When i click on the X+ or X- button only one motor turns (X1). when i click on the Y+ or Y- button it's the other x motor that turns (X2). Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
