LinuxCNC Install using MX Linux 19.4 - Geared Toward New Users

Thanks for your time Phill
attached is the screen shot of what you asked for, and other screen shots not sure if they help.
some thing that did not happen is 
mesaflash --device 7i76e --addr 10.10.10.10 --readhmid
I did create another GUI QTDragon and it opened without a problem, my limited experiences seems to point at the GUI QTPlasmaC setup or files needed for it.
 
 
 

Are you using 2.9 or 2.10?

I'm a little green with this where do I look to answer your question

Thinking on this a bit, you likely installed master as that’s what the directions say to. At the time, master was required for QtPlasmaC.

But, to answer your question, assuming you did a package install, you can open the synaptic package manager and search linuxcnc in the little search bar. It will show all the linuxcnc stuff you have installed and should start with 2.9 or 2.10.

under latest version it shows 1:2.10.0
I assume that is version 2.10??
When I look at the .INI file is says master 2.9

That is a correct assumption. Thank you.

This doesnt make sense to me, I wasnt aware the ini file showed the version. Either way, I'm going with what was shown in the package manager.
