Errors preventing LinuxCNC from starting.

Don't know about the maxgeo.split error but gedit is part of gnome so won't be
present unless your Linux installation is gnome based, however you can add it with:

sudo apt-get install gedit

I wouldn't recommend it. It brings on just about all of Gnome with it.

Change the INI file to "Mousepad" if you just want an text editor.

If you want a good text editor, then Geany has few dependencies and is a fair bit more advance than Gedit.

Gedit is not installed by default in the current live versions of the Linuxcnc iso. It isn't difficult to install with an internet connection, but there are a large number of dependencies that must also be installed for it to work. For this reason installing it without an internet connection is a little more difficult.

You can also use other text editors, such as the default mousepad one that is included with the iso. Just change the entry in the ini file where it says gedit to mousepad.
