More specifically, with linuxcnc 2.9 + QTPlasmaC ?

I really hope that someone isnt me, because I only have one more thing I can try, and then Im out of ideas. Since installing a different version of qt with desktop openGL didnt work, unless I am still doing it wrong, the last thing I got is swapping some symlinks for the rpi graphics driver. last time I tried it, I wrecked some stuff and didnt know how to fix it. I havent checked any updates for 2021 yet as Ive been side tracked with personal things, but the native graphics drivers are still being worked on, and since my last attempt, there appears to be a few more rpi4 specific qt5 install requirements related to the difference in graphics library, so there are a few new things to try also. Qtvcp, last I checked, will run on RPI4 but the graphics preview will not. you can have it load without graphics and still work, but since both QTVCP and rpi graphics drivers are in constant updates, I find things break from one update to another and sometimes the graphics not loading are a fatal error and sometimes not, and the rest of the gui loads but with errors.snowgoer540 wrote: The last I had heard qtVCP will not run on a rpi. I think ...someone (no idea who)... was working on it, but I've not heard anything.

Unfortunately QtPlasmaC won't run on a Rpi, python-qt does not support opengl desktop, so you are stuck with PlasmaC on that platform at this stage.Are there any updates to QTPlasmaC running on the Raspberry Pi Rpi4 either 2.8, v2.8.2 or v2.9?
If so - is there an ISO image available?
I'm running PlasmaC quite successfully and could either install a new or upgrade.
Thanks
Dennis
