just download the 3 Deb files and the instructions in that drive folder.
​​​​​​typing
Code:
dpkg -i deb-name.deb installs  a Deb file., There is a Linux shortcut where you can type enough of the file name to be unique and hit tab which auto complete the command for you.  to paste into the terminal either right click or control_shift_V
Thank you. When I click on the the links in the instructions in that section (http://repository...) nothing happens. Is that correct?

Thank you all for the continued help.

I made it through all the steps and probe basic is not visible in the apps section.

I did a search in the App launcher and found nothing.

something went wrong.

I did have issues the the repos links not working and rodw provided a link to a google drive that had them. Those reps had a different name and so I had to manually change the subsequent command lines to look for those specifically.

But it all seamed to have worked just fine in the command line I did the open terminal here as instructed for the correct portions of the install.

So I'm not sure where I went wrong. I am going to do a reboot and see if anything changes. Your ideas on what I should try next would be helpful.

use this links for qtpyvcp deb:

repository.qtpyvcp.com/repo/qtpyvcp-dev/...4871882e.dev_all.deb


use thise link for Probe Basic deb file:

repository.qtpyvcp.com/repo/probe-basic-...-cf74f74.dev_all.deb
Thank you. I tried the developer download and that works just fine. I used the instructions from smallmachineshopconcepts video on YT. Can I use that to run my machine? Or do I need to do a standard install to run my machine?

links to debs are fixed.

no you should not have done that.. delete all of it the dev folder completely before installing the .deb version. that is for DEVELOPMENT ONLY.

use the quickstart deb install the links are repaired and now work as expected. was a minor glitch in the build bot.
