Definitive guide to installing MX Linux, Probe Basic and LinuxCNC 2.9

figured out the menu item. Never did a RIP install. got it

Thanks for the comments! I guess my guide assumes you're starting from scratch so the folders wouldn't exist then. I edited the guide to add the cd to conv gcode folder.

@zhult Can you please post the output of 'pip3 list'?

here is my pip3 list   

qtpyvcp should report version 0.4.0 in pip3 list.

Please try running through these steps again:
cd qtpyvcp
featherpad setup.py
Enable line numbers in: Options-> Line Numbers
Modify line #62 to version='0.4.0',
python3 -m pip install --editable .

I did start from scratch.  The directories seem to be created in the 

"Run LinuxCNC
    ~/linuxcnc-dev/scripts/linuxcnc"
Step.

 

Good catch! Maybe the two mkdir commands are superfluous then!

I did fix the issue in the pip3 list. I still have an issue i think with the conversational as i am still getting the Base op error. i uploaded the pip3 list and the error long. 

Are you sure you checked out the python3 branch of conversational before installing?

from what i followed yes i think i did. but im new to this so i could have easily missed something. I went back to that section of the guide and found a warning.
