You can always try the "non free" version of Debian 10 or 11, those have all the drivers included.My problem is that I can't install Debian - 10 or 11. It doesn't play well with either of my USB wifi sticks, I don't have wired internet in the shop, and it also doesn't have drivers for the realtek NIC.

Holy cow, that actually worked.
Thanks, Tommy.
So... which version of probe basic do I install now?

I'm not sure about installing PB Vertical. But for Horizontal I have proven these instructions. These assume you have completed the Deb-11 install per my instrcution page.

Joco,
That did the trick. Probably the easiest and pain-free installation in the past few months thanks to you and Tommy.
Any ideas on who might be able to help with PB vertical? I'm really at a crossroad here with monitor size/selection and the new control panel.

I'm not too sure where things are with PB vertical. I know there has been work on it and the most active branch seems to be PBTestLayouts with changes made in the last month.

Joco - I've not received any responses in my PB Vertical thread... and I've no idea how to 'get' the PBTestLayouts branch from github. I can navigate to the branch page but I really don't know what to do from that point.

Rod,
I got a response from terminal:
Branch 'PBTestLayouts' set up to track remote branch 'PBTestLayouts' from 'origin'.
Switched to a new branch 'PBTestLayouts'
That looks promising, but I think there's maybe a next step? PB development (master) is already installed, but not sure how to either uninstall and reinstall using the test layouts branch, or update/merge.

No errors running the python3 install, but vertical still fails to open.
I copied /probe_basic/configs/probe_basic_vertical to my linuxcnc/configs folder and ran it from the GUI selector. Got the following error:
File "/home/mill/probe_basic/probe_basic_vertical/probe_basic_vertical.py", line 13, in <module>from . import probe_basic_vertical_rcImportError: cannot import name 'probe_basic_vertical_rc' from 'probe_basic_vertical' (/home/mill/probe_basic/probe_basic_vertical/__init__.py)
probe_basic opens fine.
