Doesn't look like it's going to be as easy as just DISPLAY=gmoccapy
The page here gives a lot of information but I'm not clear on what I'm missing.
https://linuxcnc.org/docs/html/gui/gmoccapy.html#_requirements
However I've not found a migration tutorial. The first try at this failed
running on a Pi4 LinuxCNC with AXIS 2.8.4.
Here's the first ERROR:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
ERROR, trying to initialize the user tabs or panels, check for typos
['notebook_mode', 'notebook_mode']
**** GMOCCAPY INFO ****
**** no audio available! ****
**** PYGST libray not installed? ****
**** is python-gstX.XX installed? ****
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Not sure how to solve the above error.
And a bit further down
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've attached the report file. I'm guessing that the statement in my ini file
PYVCP = pyvcp-panel.xml
Is likely not legal for gmoccapy?
