I feel a bit like an idiot right now. I got my 7i76E all wired up in an older IH6000 mill that was originally using parallel port and mach3. I did a Linux Mint install following these instructions (Post 3:)
Complete Linux Mint 18.1 LinuxCNC
.
On the board I have the W3 jumper in the up position for 10.10.10.10 IP address. I modified my /etc/network stuff according to the mesaUS notes
mesaus.com/info/7i76e.txt
. My ethernet is enp4s0 so I set it up using that instead of eth0 or eth1.
I cannot ping the board but I can ping my source (10.10.10.1).
Output of: ip a
Code:
2: enp4s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state UP group default qlen 1000

inet 10.10.10.1/24 brd 10.10.10.255 scope global enp4s0

When trying to start linuxCNC I get:

What am I doing wrong? This is driving me nuts.
