The English not is my native language and not really understand that sentence.
I'm not a Linux advanced user in terminal and scripts.
So, what does it mean?
1) I'm rotating the screen with Linux graphical UI and after that I have to use the script to rotate the touch.
2) The script rotates the screen and the touch together (both) in one direction. (in this case i need to return the default landscape mode)

At least that is what it says, i have not used it, i did it the old way and it is long and painful, so if this works, do report back, please.
 

You confused me...
If it will rotate both, I need to change it from portrait orientation back again to landscape and only after that use the script.
Is it correct?
Because it's now in portrait mode and the touch works not correctly. (as on the photo above)

it works fine on my Raspberry 5 after a clean install

thank you
 

No, it should do the rotation of both the screen and touch.
At least that is what it says, i have not used it, i did it the old way and it is long and painful, so if this works, do report back, please.

Try this, otherwise it is a mess to sift through endless posts on several forums to get the right answer, been there and done that, twice.

Do I have to return it in landscape mode before rotating it with this script?

Have a look through these:

Hello There
new problem, new topic:

Newbie here, i am trying to set up my milling machine, but i keep getting errors from hal_gpio:

Note: Using POSIX realtime
The GPIO line GPIO4 can not be found
hal_gpio: rtapi_app_main: Operation not permitted (-1)

if I am trying to do it in the terminal it still doesnt work:

halcmd: loadrt hal_gpio outputs=GPIO13,GPIO19
Note: Using POSIX realtime
The GPIO line GPIO13 can not be found
hal_gpio: rtapi_app_main: Operation not permitted (-1)
<stdin>:6: waitpid failed /usr/bin/rtapi_app hal_gpio
<stdin>:6: /usr/bin/rtapi_app exited without becoming ready
<stdin>:6: insmod for hal_gpio failed, returned -1

Tried fixes:
adduser and gpasswd
linuxcnc.org/docs/devel/html/dr ... _gpio.html troubleshooting
archlinuxarm.org/forum/viewtopi ... 65&t=16838 (i know its arch, not debian..)
viewtopic.php?t=8999 (poor mans fix)

i really need some help quickly, have to present it to my team in 12 hours. Thanks for everything in advance!

Setup:
Raspi5
LinuxCNC 2.9.1 (debian)
Milling machine BADOG Cubique
Driver: Badog CNC MikroNC
me (Noob, LinuxCNC beginner)

I did something, to display the correct time choosing Kyiv (Ukraine) in local.... something (and want to use other languages to type and search on the internet)
May be that was the cause?

Set the Linux locale to UTF-8, probably like this
stackoverflow.com/questions/20577764/set...system-default-utf-8

I can't finish the PncConf...
After setting the steps/mm pressing the forward button pops up this massage. Is it possible to solve it?

 

Thanks!
I will try it at home.

If there is any issue with the "because device is strictly unmanaged" while activating the connection, this helped me

Hey kind folks,

I thought I’d share a quick video showing the status of our Linux CNC foam-cutter project. I’m brand new to LinuxCNC and basically just took this on as a fun project to learn a bit. 

photos.app.goo.gl/ksw5mnEoJEibSiqs5

The drive drums are custom designed 3D printed hypocycloidal drives running a pair of cables to a hot wire knife.  The 3D printed drives are a bit janky but actually work surprisingly well.  Not sure how durable they’d be in the long term. 

While this test-bed is quite small, the objective is to be able to mount the drum modules on a wall some 12 feet apart and in doing so be able to cut shapes out of large foam sheets. The objective is to be able to build an ultra-low cost CNC foam cutter for less than $200.  I could then manually stack the cut sheets together like a loaf of bread and build very large 3D printed objects ala a huge FDM (albiet with 2” thick layers).

Given the lower speed we’re running the unit on a Raspberry Pi.  I’m sure the latency is a mess but it appears to be tracking.  The forward and inverse kinematics functions were the majority of the challenge - I made life much more difficult by running the cables tangential to the drums instead of through a fixed ferrule but I was eventually able to solve the kinematics.  The inverse kinematics were just trig but the forward kinematics required numerical methods (Newton-Raphson) which I only sort of understand but seem to work.

More to come to make this more useful. If there is any interest I’ll likely open-source the whole thing when it’s a bit more stable and refined.

Thanks to all of you who helped on here through my rough patches.
