So far haven't yet been able to integrate it into my network although it
does have Samba. But then I've had trouble getting Linux Mint to talk
nicely to the Windows network too.
Getting rid of windows gets rid of samba/cifs. I use sshfs or its kin
for all such intersystem operations, once setup, it Just Works.
Hey Gene,
Dumping Windows isn't an option. There's way too much stuff that just doesn't
run under Linux or a virtual box and I have no intention of throwing away 40
years of work.

That is your prerogative John, but python3 is claimed to work on either.
While removing the sideboards windows seems/wants to impose. I wish I
understood python3 better myself, but at 90 yo I'm running out of time
and short term memory so OpenSCAD is likely the last language I'll
teach myself. OTOH, I've had a heck of a ride thru the broadcasting
industry, but its now winding down as my diabetes takes over, leaving my
fingerprints here and there in some pretty impressive places. So have
you and I respect that. But when a better solution presents itself, I
like to explore the possibilities. Most recently those presented by the
closed loop stepper/servo's I've found make a whole new machine in terms
of speed AND accuracy if fully exploited. Good luck & God Bless.
