What are the current probing screen choices for Gmoccapy

I made a panel and did some tests on my machine, and while in principle it does work, there are usability problems with key forwarding and aborting that I am not prepared to try and work through.
I am curious if the original versa probe aborted properly - it would seem a miracle if it did.

Sorry, I think I steered you to a dead end.

Well I tried again after deleting all other gladevcp panels (There were 3) and the entry problem seemed to go away.

If you wish to experiment, I can push the panel to master.

Yes I will like to see if I can it it working and make any changes that may be desired.

I had a set back in that mint 21 it would not longer boot up. Others have reported same issue with latest versions of mint that just boot to 'out of memory message'. Nothing worked to fix that so now In the process of rebuilding with separate home partition on the SSD.

If you are compiling linuxcnc, this goes in share/qtvcp/panels/

load in gmoccapy with:

EMBED_TAB_NAME = Probe
EMBED_TAB_LOCATION = ntb_preview
EMBED_TAB_COMMAND = halcmd loadusr -Wn qtvcp_embed qtvcp -d -c qtvcp_embed  -x {XID} versaprobe


 

I got tired of problems with the latest versions of Mint and decided use Debian 11 instead for my system update and use the 5.19.8-rt10 kernel patch. LinuxCnc compiled fine after I install all depends and now able to continue.

Cert problems on newer kernels seem to persist but Debian was able to generate its own Cert file for the kernel after making some changes to the kernal .config file that 'xconfig' generated. During the make just selected the default two times for input required for cert's.

I replaced what was in the kernal .config file with the below before the make. This is one of many solutions I found that actually allowed the new kernel to be built.

I'm presently looking for the probe files share/qtvcp/panels/ and think that I may need to download them to make sure I have copies of your files and not copies of my own older files. My LinuxCnc was cloned from master today 13 Sep 2022.

It's been a year since you last posted about this topic. I've just added a probe to my Bridgeport knee mill that is now using LinuxCNC. Did you get this to a point that you could share how to duplicate?
My machine is air-gapped, due to there being no internet access in the workshop.
