I'll 2nd those thoughts although I haven't yet tried 2.5.0. I have been on master-rt, the 2.6.0-hashnumber builds for about 4 months now, which means I get a fresh build almost every day. I think it is more stable than these atom machines. The last one I bought doesn't seem to be as stable as the first one, and quitting a major app without having to power cycle it is occurring often enough that I am not pointing any fingers at LinuxCNC. Quitting any app can lock it up, and will about 10% of the time. Next Subject, question asked before without an answer other than Ed Nisley saying I should setup a vnc connection which seems extremely complex to do. Has anyone else seen this error when attempting to run linuxcnc -l over an ssh -Y session? ---------- [gene@coyote CoCo]$ ssh -Y lathe gene@lathe's password: (about a 1 minute 30 second delay here, no clue why) Linux lathe 2.6.32-122-rtai #rtai SMP Tue Jul 27 12:44:07 CDT 2010 i686 GNU/Linux Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS Welcome to Ubuntu! * Documentation: https://help.ubuntu.com/ 4 packages can be updated. 0 updates are security updates.

(expected, base_thread is 20 u-s on that box as I am not done 'tuning' by a long ways) So what .profile or .bashrc do I edit to add these # make ssh -Y behave itself export LIBGL_ALWAYS_INDIRECT=1 lines to? grepping for it on the shop machine comes up empty. grep apparently doesn't search '.' files by default. :( But if on the mills box, I sudo -i, cd back to /home/gene, it IS in /home/gene/.bashrc, so I've edited that file on lathe.coyote.den and added it. So this problem at least can be marked SOLVED! Maybe folks searching the list archive can find it next time? In any event, a snappy salute, and a virtual hand cooler is due for the new release folks. Many thanks. Now I need to see about an isolated, nominally 24 volt supply for one of Arturo Duncan's C41 spindle controller cards.
