I installed it but when executing it, an error appears regarding openGL, and I really don't know how to fix it.
ERROR: In /work/standalone-x64-build/VTK-source/Rendering/OpenGL2/vtkOpenGLRenderWindow.cxx, line 797
vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow (0x55a31eacb850): GL version 2.1 with the gpu_shader4 extension is not supported by your graphics driver but is required for the new OpenGL rendering backend. Please update your OpenGL driver. If you are using Mesa please make sure you have version 10.6.5 or later and make sure your driver in Mesa supports OpenGL 3.2.

I had the same issue on my router machine running on an old PC. I don't think the graphics card / driver were adequate. (After googling OpenGL)

Installed on my gaming laptop with NVidia graphics card, all worked fine. (After having a battle with the laptop bios)
Sorry, not much of a help, but I noticed no-one has had the chance to reply.
If my explanation/reason is wrong, happy if someone corrects me. I'm a Linux noob...

Hey Guys, this is my first post so please go easy on me. Or don't...
Firstly I would like to say what an AWESOME looking GUI!
I have a couple of questions, they may not be directly related to this GUI. Possibly more of a general Linuxcnc thing.
Is it possible to get the system to boot straight into the cnc screen? In other words hide the OS in the background on boot.
Do I need to have an ATC for this GUI?

Sorry if these questions seem a bit stupid. Prior to deciding to retrofit my mill I have only used the proprietary kit

Thanks in advance :)

Search for "linux kiosk", that is the same thing for internet terminals.

Do I need to have an ATC for this GUI?

No, it should work without it.

Thanks for the reply Tommylight. As I read the second answer it very quickly became one of those 'oh duhh' moments. Makes total sense when you say it like that :)

From the dev install on git:

2- Upgrade to LinuxCNC version 2.8

Is there a specific need for 2.8? Can Probe basic work with 2.7.xx as well?

Thanks.

no probe basic must run on 2.8 or 2.9, the reason is because probe basic was setup to use joints in the backend wiring and 2.7 does not use joints

I have looked at all the posts relating to your project and I must say that your work is very impressive.

I hope to be able to get it installed in the next few days in v2.9, convert my configuration files as needed and can run some tests to get a good understanding of all your gui's features. It definitely makes me think that there is no need for me to proceed any further on gui development work that I have been doing on my own.

Thanks for the impressive and nice work! I use Probe_Basic now and i like it. I am an experienced coder but not with python. Anyway i would be a helping hand.

Is there a description how to set up a development environment? I am sure i will be familiar in a short time.

My short goals are to bring the spindle load and speed widgets to get working. Also a translation into my native language "German" is a nice to have :)

Best,
Udo
