Re: [Emc-users] New Beaglebone
My guess is it doesn't. At least not directly but likely could have a cape built for it that does. But unless it has the co-processors, like the original BBB, to handle say a 5 axis mill and VFD for the spindle I don't see a future in it for LCNC. If the FPGA programming is required for the trajectory side of things it falls outside the experience of most people anyway. The Pi4 with MESA 7i92H is cheaper than the BBB. Aren't there also full blown PC boards now available for under $150? I have 3 BBBs. One is the 2GB one. The other two are the 4GB. One is used to emulate with a special cape, the ST-506 drive on an OS9-68K S100 system. Another was slated for use with a Delta 3D printer but the cape died and support was zero and now the 3D printer is sitting in a corner getting dusty. It was a POS anyway. The third with machinekit which was also essentially discontinued not to mention that the cape liked NO limit switches so a broken wire would not stop a motor. Like all BBB stuff it was pushed on the idea of long term life but in reality I have two BBB books from the same author (different editions) and the way to deal with the I/O is dramatically different. And when you use one of the older OS versions for say the first book it demonstrates the danger of the internet as it currently exists. The web sites to bring an older version of the OS, update and upgrade, no longer exist. The moment a sudo apt-get update or upgrade fails because of path not found or something like that we know we are in trouble. So IMHO, the BBB is not a direction to go.

Re: [Emc-users] New Beaglebone
This is a VERY capable board. The main thing it has is the FPGA and a very fast SYZYGY connector. It could drive a multi-axis mill as well as any MESA board. But it is not plug and play with LCNC. You’d need to write code for the onboard FPGA and create a small PCB to connect SYZGY to a set of screw terminals using some high-performance buffers or optical isolators. As for not having a connector for a monitor, that is no big deal as you could export the screen an iPad over WiFi. I think this device’s best use case is robotics where very a high-speed control loop is needed.But my experience is that today, microcontrollers are good enough for this. > On Nov 4, 2023, at 10:56 AM, andy pugh wrote: > > https://www.beagleboard.org/blog/2023-11-02-beaglev-fire-announcement > > I don't know how usable it will be for LinuxCNC, as I don't know if we > can compile for RISCV. > > Also, I don't know if it has any video output? > > -- > atp > "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is > designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and > lunatics." > — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1912 > > > ___ > Emc-users mailing list > Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users ___ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users

[Emc-users] LinuxCNC 2.9 is Released
LinuxCNC 2.9.1 has been released (there was no 2.9.0 release) This marks a major new release of LinuxCNC. Due to the difficulty of supporting both Python3 and Python2 and various out-of-date libraries the 2.9 release of LinuxCNC is only supported in Debian Buster or later, Ubuntu Focal and later and Rasbian 12 and later. Furthermore we are no longer building any 32-bit versions of any packages. This update is recommended to all users of supported systems and hardware. There may be a final 2.8 release to incorporate new drivers and features for those unable to upgrade.

Re: [Emc-users] LinuxCNC 2.9 is Released
Thanks to everyone who worked on this. I do understand just how much is involved to get to a new release. First question on this subject then. My LinuxCNC on the Pi4 is 2.8.4 on Buster. A sudo apt-get update does update some files but then says other paths won't be valid for 17 days and some hours, minutes and seconds. Therefore doing a sudo apt-get upgrade again upgrades some files but also reports path not found. How does one upgrade a Pi4 running LinuxCNC without building the OS from scratch?
