Opps, Copied the Display line verbatim so it was all one line.

DISPLAY = qtpyvcp VCP = mill_touch_v6

So that seems to have solved that issue but looks like there a few more yet. I opened axis sim and then changed display to QtPyVCP got the error below. It looks like it is a graphics issue, is that correct? I can also run the QtPyVCP sim and the basic Brender but everything else crashes

It needs OpenGL 3.2 but 2.1 is installed.
If i am not mistaken you have to upgrade mesa-utils or similar. Or just do a
Sudo apt update
Sudo apt dist-upgrade

Theres also the possibility that OpenGL 3.2 is not supported by your Graphic hardware
(too old) I ran into this on a HP DC7800, about the same vintage as your Dell Optiplex 755...

The fix is a newer computer or adding a video card.

Thanks for all the replies and help. I'll have to order a Graphics card or look at a new PC. The Dell optilex was probably ok for running mesa cards on axis but if want to use the newer GUI's then a new pc is on the cards.


Sorry to clog up this thread, I'll post a new one once I have got the new card or PC. Thanks again.

Software openGL might be worth a try?

Hi!

Many thanks for the excellent piece of software!
I had run
Code:
cd ~ git clone https://github.com/jethornton/mill_touch_v6.git cd mill_touch_v6 pip install -e . cp -rv ~/mill_touch_v6/mill_touch_v6 ~/linuxcnc/configs/ cat ~/mill_touch_v6/scripts/.xsessionrc >> ~/.xsessionrc

Where should I create my ini file? Inside "~/linuxcnc/configs/mill_touch_v6" ?
Is it enough to change in Axis mill ini sample file (which could be taken as a template) "DISPLAY = qtpyvcp VCP = mill_touch_v6", in order to run mill touch v6 as demo?
