For some reason I didn't get that to work. Looking at what did work it should have. I may not have hit save or something.
I found this link on the LinuxCNC forumshttps://forum.linuxcnc.org/9-installing-linuxcnc/35839-updating-to-latest-version-of-2-8?start=20 and with a couple tweaks now have 2.8 installed. His instructions have an error in Step 2. The lines need to start with http:// The machine is now happily running 2 instances of glxgears and streaming from Youtube. Latency test is showing max jitter of 45687 on Servo and 40422 on Base. That is with the onboard video. I may drop a card in and see if I can get it better but that is probably more than adequate for my Gatton CNC on a parallel port. I am running it at 3200 microsteps/inch and don't need over 100 ipm for my purposes.
