Debian 12

-  How did you install Probe Basic? Quickstart guide? Dev Guide? 
I followed the quickstart guide.

I get an error when I run the third command 'sudo dpkg -i python3-qtpyvcp_5.0.2-19.dev_amd64.deb'
The download folder shows the file.

Yeah, no love. I'm going to go with QTDragon instead.

You should start with Axis GUI first, till you get the machine working properly, then switch to any other GUI.
You can freely ignore this if the machine is working.

I'm converting from Masso to Linux so while I have a working machine, it's not working on Linux :)
