I have been using linuxcnc 2.9.0~Pre0 from sources, run in place. Until today, it has worked, mostly. Before today, about 2x per week it would freeze and I had to cycle power to get it working. Now, linuxcnc freezes. After fixing a problem with apt database, > sudo apt update > sudo apt --fix-broken install removed some broken install of linuxcnc > cd ~/RTAI/linuxcnc > git pull ... > ./configure > make > sudo make setuid > source ../scripts/rip-environment > linuxcnc A popup allowed selecting the config - selected 4axis The config was found Starting linuxcnc... The linuxcnc banner window appears. The mouse, keyboard, and display freeze. The clock in the upper right corner does not advance. The mouse pointer does not move, sometimes it disappears. Ctrl-Alt-F2, etc, have no effect. I have to cycle power to reboot. > uname -a Linux Sherline 4.14.148-RTAI-AMD64 #2 PREEMPT ... > from /etc/os-release the kernel is buster. How do I fix this?

Today, I used apt --fix-broken install which removed the (broken?) linuxcnc package and now I have this problem. I initially installed from a DVD, linuxcnc 2.7.14, in Oct 2019. Then, upgraded to buster. Is it possible something from linuxcnc* or linuxcnc-dev* needed for running from the git sources? I use run-in-place.

It took me 20 minutes to install linuxcnc-2.7-wheezy.iso in virtual machine. It's not the same as on bare metal of course but most things should work under such circumstances. Linux linuxcnc 3.4-9-rtai-686-pae #1 SMP PREEMPT Debian 3.4.55-4linuxcnc i686 GNU/Linux rs@linuxcnc:~$ lsmod | wc -l 83 one a set of modules is sound related snd_intel8x0 snd_ac97_codec,snd_intel8x0,snd_timer,snd_pcm,snd_seq,snd_seq_device Default installation has sound modules active on CNC? LinuxCNC program started fine. I was able to power it on. When I started milling test axis.ngc it failed due to RT error. Not a surprise for a VM. I was watching a TV program on my workstation connected to Silicon Dust box over the network at the same time as VM was running. As soon as I turned the TV app VLC off I was able to start virtual CNC milling. Amazing how many things can be done on one system. I poked around CNC kern.log and other logs. It's easy to see that there is a lot of useful information for troubleshooting. -- Rafael |

My problem started AFTER I used 'apt --fix-broken install'. Since then, I have nothing that worked. I used linuxcnc for at least a month after I started using the git build.+ History, Starting in late November and early December: 1. Install stretch 2. Upgrade to buster, as noted in earlier posts. 3. Git clone ... 4. Install depends 5. configure and build. After this, I DID NOT upgrade the kernel. linuxcnc worked OK, for at least a month. ===== New Installation of linuxcnc ==================================== I installed linuxcnc 'stretch' from the iso. 'Wheezy' has too much jitter. I installed a new disk drive and installed to it. After the install, I upgraded linuxcnc from 1:2.7.14 to 1:2.7.15 via apt. Linuxcnc 1:2.7.15 'wheezy' works fine.

Had similar problems and removed graphics card, used the builtin instead and it started to work. Pretty sure I use buster on several machines. |

A number of years ago (circa 2000) I experienced problems with updating to a new version of Linux. This was on SuSe and Redhat. You can never be sure what is broken but you can always be sure something is broken. I always do a clean install now. I haven't tried it on any current version and don't intend to. There is always someone complaining about the version update killing some function and a clean install magically fixing it. Then you have Windows helpfully updating your software even when you thought you had all the (DO NOT UPDATE) boxes ticked. The QNX and OpenCNC install ran from 1997 thru 2017 and was shut down because the machine was sold. It was never updated and not on the internet. The only problem I remember was chips accumulated between the pendant face and the CRT touchscreen. This caused some strange actions/reactions. A cleaning and silicon seal fixed that. Jon's comment about not updating a running machine is right on the button.

A PCI Express SATA II card with 4 ports can be bought pretty cheaply. PCI SATA cards can be found for around $15 for SATA 1.0 and a bit higher for SATA II, but they'll bottleneck SATA II devices. Found something I thought would never exist, and it's at a totally not stupidly insane price, 2 and 4 port USB 3.0 cards for PCI. Seriously? Just ONE USB 3.0 port with a decently fast drive connected would be more than the PCI bus can handle, but Newegg has a 2 port for $47 and a 4 port for $65. Why would a company make something that pointless but not a dual USB-C port ExpressCard for laptops? ExpressCard has PCI Express x1 and there are tons of dual port USB-C PCIe x1 cards for desktops.

I installed Debian 10 from debian-10.3.0-amd64-netinst.iso Boot Debian 10 - OK sudo apt-get install ./linux-image-4.14.148-rtai-amd64.deb - OK sudo apt-get install ./linux-headers-4.14.148-rtai-amd64.deb - OK Boot linux-image-4.14.148-rtai-amd64 - There seems to be some problem with the gnome display. I had to use ctrl-alt-f2 and then alt-f1 to get the display to start. This problem repeated on subsequent boots. # uname -a Linux sherline 4.14.148-rtai-amd64 #2 SMP PREEMPT Sat Nov 9 16:29:10 GMT 2019 x86_64 GNU/Linux # sudo apt-get install ./linuxcnc_2.8.0~pre1_amd64.deb \ ./linuxcnc-dev_2.8.0~pre1_amd64.deb ... linuxcnc : Depends: libboost-python1.62.0 but it is not installable Depends: python-gtksourceview2 but it is not installable Depends: python-vte but it is not installable Recommends: hostmot2-firmware-all but it is not installable linuxcnc-dev : Depends: yapps2-runtime but it is not installable These packages do not seem to be in the Debian 10 repository, including contrib and non-free.
