(superseeded) Linuxcnc on Linux Mint 19.3 quick and easy installation

Ahoj Jane,
On the first page of pncconf untick the "create simulated......"
And start a new topic for the VFD issues, this is for installation issues only.

Glad to see this topic at the top of the Installing Linuxcnc page

I removed it after the release of the official 2.8, was not aware that it was used so much !

Thanks for making it a Sticky Tommy.

Are the linux headers available for this rt kernel?
I need to compile a wifi module and cant get the right headers.

Linux linux-test 4.9.0-13-rt-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT RT Debian 4.9.228-1 (2020-07-05) x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

ftp.us.debian.org/debian/pool/main/l/lin..._4.9.228-1_amd64.deb
Might need other packages, so here is the place to look for them:
debian.pkgs.org/9/debian-main-amd64/linu...228-1_amd64.deb.html
The link is down in the download section, double click on the link, right click above it and select "open link" from the context menu.
