Hello to all, I am new here was created by Plithere46
Hello to all, I am new here and, do hope to learn what I can for what I intend to do with the CNC Router table and, linuxCNC. found this forum by chance, luck me.
I have Debian 12 on a laptop computer, I will be using this for the CNC router table in the workshop, I hope!
The issue I have is that I can not find a good site that has LinuxCNC that works on Debian 12 for download.
Is there anywhere that has this as a download? I simply need to put it on a flash drive and install it to the laptop.

Any help would be appreciated.

all you need to do is type
sudo apt-get install linuxcnc-uspace linuxcnc-uspace-dev

This will get you 2.94 which is  a couple of bug fixes behind the current 2.98 version

If you want to get to 2.98 (which is probably not a big issue  for now), follow the directions here
linuxcnc.org/docs/stable/html/getting-st...th_preempt_rt_kernel

Laptops are not good candidates for linuxCNC because of all the latency inducing features in them but its worth trying. If you do need a better PC, go to 2.98 then. Install with the ISO on the downloads page
linuxcnc.org/downloads/

I have a few installation videos on my @MrRodW YouTube channel
