Hello,
after a long way und thousands of tries i got my pi running a RT Raspian what works also with the model B pi and 8GB of RAM.I also got the linuxCNC Version 2.9 (current from git) compiled and running. I have 4 axis set up (xyz and a) and they all are running when i push the /- button for each axis. But when i start the standard cnc program (linuxCNC logo) nothing happens.
I do not get an error nothing moves on the steppers and also in the visual screen the tool is not moving at all. Also when i go to the command line for gcode nothing moves at all.
I have no end/reference switches connected right now, its only a setup with the hardware and the steppers wired together on a table.
Can anybody give me a hind where i have to search? i could not find a log file or something like that.
Georg

From a quick glance, there is nothing about spindle in the ini file and there is an entry about spindle-at-speed in the hal file, assuming there is an M3 in the gcode you are using to test, nothing happens as it is waiting for the spindle to reach the set speed.

It sounds like you need to home the axes. Click the Home All button and that should get you going.

sending a simple gcode to move the axis is not working (MDI tab). For this a spindle should not be needed

i switched now to the latest 2.8 Version, same behavior except that i get now a message that i have to make a reference run (deutsch Referenz Fahrt)
i tried to suppress this with the ini setting in TRAJ
NO_FORCE_HOMING = 1
but this is ignored somehow
