Dear community,After I performed system (Debian 12) updates, the axes are missing in the GUI
[code][code]sudo apt update
sudo apt uprade
[/code][/code]

 

Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this?

Did you reboot afterwards?

Try running these commands:

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt clean
sudo apt autoremove

(probably run them twice)

If it is still broken, try rebooting again.

Also try recovery mode's "fix broken packages" option.

It fixed my computer when it failed to boot one day.

(That was for stupid Ubuntu 24.04 tho)

Why did you bother to update stuff in the first place?

The PC you use for CNC control does not even need to be connected to the internet.

If it works, probably just leave it alone to avoid headaches.

Hello Langdons,

Even with clean and autoremove, the axes are missing in the GUI

I've suspended a new system. Before the computer goes offline and goes into the basement, I wanted to bring everything up to date again.

The repair was unsuccessful.

Hmm...

Perhaps it's a rendering issue of some sort.

Upgrades sometimes break graphics drivers (especially for older GPUs).

Always check the list of packages to be upgraded just in case an upgrade could break stuff.

I'm no Debian expert; I have used Debian on one PC for LinuxCNC, but that's it.

Does "repair" refer to the "repair broken packages" option in "recovery mode"?

Did you enable networking first?

Also, anytime you update if there is something missing in probe basic using your machine config on program open, check the probe basic simulation from within the linuxcnc sims. It will always have any updated requirements performed. If the sim opens and appears normal, then it's a safe bet that  it's your machine configuration requiring new updates. We put information right on the status page that is updated with new releases with a link to any requirements due to upgrades in probe basic.  Always start there.
