You just need to change the entry in the INI file to choose a
different interface.

Where would one find these alternate interfaces for EMC? I’m running a Sherline
mill using EMC 8.something and Hardy Heron on a Sony PCG-F430 computer with 256
megabytes of memory. So far, it’s been running great using the Axis interface.

You can run most versions of linux without the overhead of the gui by
starting the system in run level 3. The gui usually starts in run level
5. You then have to figure out how to control LinuxCNC, maybe from a
remote computer (I think some users have done this).

Easy to run on older computer especially if they have metal cases.

I only know that some are using Xubuntu as a light weight desktop. I
assume Keystick still needs a desktop to display.
I show my complete ignorance about it in this thread.

Could it be possible to use the server install of ubuntu 10.04 on an old
pc? Because that way you only install the minimal components without the
GUI. I've done it before with 8.04 to have the minimum components loaded, I
used to load the GUI after that, but I think that an option would be to use

Thanks to everyone who replied. Sounds like if I'm willing to accept
slow performance, it's just a matter of trying to load LCNC and see if
it will run on a particular box. Some of the older ones mentioned are
in the range of the ones I have, so there is some hope.
Thanks again.

What's everyone's experience running LCNC on older computers. I'm
talking about just the basic 3 axis control. I have several old
computers, Win 98 is functional, XP not really. Several of them have
pretty good latency numbers, so I'm exploring running LCNC instead of an
