Rotary Jog low

hello, today i was trying to install Probe_basic under Debain 11 on a other PC...

i was following this manual
www.qtpyvcp.com/install/bullseye.html

but at this part

dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc

i got errors

how can i install po4a 0.66?

did you have a complete manual for this installation?

I use the script installer found here, it is much esdier and just works:

github.com/joco-nz/lcnc-bullseye-installer


this will install everything you need, linuxcnc, qtpyvcp and probe basic as well as the correct realtime kernel.

follow the instructions to the letter and use Debian Bullseye 11 xfce4 non free and should go on without a hitch. the other instructions often have missing dependencies because things are ever changing so its hard to keep the instructions current.

hi, thanks i have installed the debian-live-11.6.0-amd64-xfce+nonfree.iso

and followed your link. linuxcnc axis runs but i cant find the probe basic screen.

when im running opengl test i become an error with No module named 'minigl'

You would have made a folder named dev, in that folder is the probe basic folder and their is a config folder, copy it over to the linuxcnc config folder. Then look for the sim in the drop down as your were doing previously. You should be able to run the sim and make sure severity looks good.

Then once you've got that working, you can start converting your old configs over. Hoping to have a doc finished up by end of the weekend, got side tracked looking into a config builder for probe basic.

Got the probe_basic screen...

Today i will check the config.

ok got it work today....

so the dro displays dont work correctly. i´ve changed the number to 2 for 5 axis display, got work but when i close linuxcnc an reopen again des display changes ro 3 axis but the number 2 for 5 axis display was saved. now i most change the number an back again to get the 5 axis display.
