Re: [Emc-developers] Linuxcnc 2.10pre with glade

2023-12-30 Thread Rod Webster
You really are on a hiding to nothing trying to work with or upgrade a
buster distribution because Python 2.7 has been obsoleted.
A much quicker pathway would be to Install the latest 2.9.2 Iso from
https://linuxcnc.org/iso/LinuxCNC_2.9.2-amd64.hybrid.iso

If you really want to use 2.10 from the buildbot 2 at
http://buildbot2.highlab.com/
edit  /etc/apt/sources.list.d/linuxcnc.list to use the lines shown on the
buildbot page to be something like
deb http://buildbot2.highlab.com/debian/ bookworm master-uspace

Re: [Emc-developers] Linuxcnc 2.10pre with glade

2023-12-30 Thread Hans Unzner
I am using the latest Glade version (3.40.0), probably THE latest 
version unfortunately.

But also versions like 3.38.0 should be fine.
You have to make sure that you have the catalogs, that is easiest done 
when editing it in a run-in-place environment 
(https://linuxcnc.org/docs/html/code/building-linuxcnc.html#_building_for_run_in_place)

I'm afraid but I think you have to do your modifications once more for
LinuxCNC 2.9/2.10. There have been so many changes during the upgrade
from Python2 to Python3 and Gtk2 to Gtk3, which make it almost
impossible to merge from 2.8, especially the glade file. Also a huge
number of deprecated widgets have been replaced in Gmoccapy for
LinuxCNCN 2.9.
So I would recommend to just do it again for the current version. Sorry.

Well, there may be another option if you still have (or can still retrieve) the 
tarball from which you started.
It is three steps:

1. Rename your current source tree to avoid overwriting it, call it "mywork"
2. Unpack the original tarball of LinuxCNC of version 2.8 that you edited.
3. Create a diff of the two and redirect that into a file:
   diff -r original mywork > whateverpathto/mywork.patch
4. Clone the current master branch of LinuxCNC
5. patch it with what you saved in mywork.patch:
   patch -p1 < whateverpathto/mywork.patch

Not all hunks of that patch will work, but many will be just fine.

Good luck!

Re: [Emc-developers] RPi5 + Raspbian + LinuxCNC latency tests - first impressions

2023-12-30 Thread Steffen Möller via Emc-developers
Rod,

Thank you for your kind and swift reply.
HDMI sound works perfectly with the Raspbian default. Also, I think this would 
find quite some user base, since anyone reusing an old TV or a feature-rich 
monitor with the RPi would immediately benefit. I also mentioned games before :)

The RPi image we come up with does not need to be perfect. Our users should 
just not be surprised with anythin when using it. My wishlist would be
 * A pointer to our manual at all the places where the image could be downloaded
 * The manual describing 
   - how the image is created so they can contribute
   - what not to do with that image

On a sidenote, please have a look at http://raspi.debian.net/. Nothing on the 
RPi5, though maybe this resonates somehow with what we are after.

Best,
Steffen

[Emc-developers] Linuxcnc 2.10pre with glade

2023-12-30 Thread ELHIMA Moustapha via Emc-developers
Hi guy's

Houston I have a problem... I project to use the mesa 5i25T instead off the 
5i25 ( was good for me)
For the I need at list the linuxcnc2.10pre version

I had customized the gmoccapy interface (gmoccapy.glade) to get some other 
functionality and work also on the bin file of it
After few hours of work... I get the suprise to had made all of this stuff on 
the 2.8 version of linuxcnc.

I said " ok lets spend again a part of your life time again...". So I decided 
to merge to the buster version and install linuxcnc from the biuldbot.
Linuxcnc2.10pre and the mesa 5i25T working fine.
So 2nd step was to make the same modification on the gmoccapy interface and I 
get a terrible headache.
Python need to be version 3 instead off 2 for linuxcnc2.8 but ok no problem for 
that ( or maybe there is a script to merge python 2 to 3?)
For Glade I had installed v3.40 and no way to get the hal library and gladevcp.

Is it possible to get the right way to update gmoccapy on linuxcnc 2.10pre???

Thanks for your help

Re: [Emc-developers] RPi5 + Raspbian + LinuxCNC latency tests - first impressions

2023-12-30 Thread Rod Webster
Steffen,

Some good feedback thanks.
I'm really not surprised things broke on an update because we compile the
kernel from the Raspberry sources at a specific point in the commit tree.
It's not a generic  Debian build by any means. LIkewise installing a
different desktop is also asking for trouble.

Having no sound is also not surprising because in the absence of an audio
jack you are dependent on HDMI and I know other SBC's have issues with HDMI
sound. If someone has a solution please let me know

Please bear in mind that this image is over 6 weeks old and there have been
several kernel releases and countless commits to the raspberry pi kernel
since then.

But for me, the main thing is that it's only in the last few days that the
kernel version and the PREEMPT_RT patch align perfectly so I am hoping my
next version is more robust. That has never happened in the life of the pi5
before.

To test latency on the console, you can install the debian rt-tests
package. I have found that our latency-histogram yields similar results.

I don't think a single 400 usec spike when opening a browser is of concern.
Thats not something you do when running a gcode program.

Hopefully I will have some peace and quiet over the weekend to build a new
version.

Re: [Emc-developers] RPi5 + Raspbian + LinuxCNC latency tests - first impressions

2023-12-30 Thread Steffen Möller via Emc-developers
Heya,

Not only that we have a RPi4/5 confusion, you managed to add a Rod/b one.

So, the image Andy pointed to (which I understand has its roots with Rod) works 
very nicely. While idle latencies did not exceed 12µs, mostly below 10. That 
was truly impressive. Once I got wifi up and initiated some downloads, it 
doubled to 24µs, much like the value Andy got. When I started up firefox and 
selected youtube, I got a single value of 400µs, though.

A complaint I have is that there was no sound in the default installation. The 
400µs I like to speculate may be associated with the failed attempt to perform 
the respective initialisations.

Another complaint is that the image is not stable when it comes to updates. I 
was curious on the effect that the installation of KDE would have on the 
latencies, and if the missing sound would install with it. So I installed the 
package "task-desktop-kde" with debfoster. That ruined the reboot since the 
expected kernel image was no longer found. I made a screenshot with my phone 
and send it to whoever is interested, but my hunch is that Rod's new image if 
depending more on Debian's installation will likely solve such inconsistency 
issues.

Do we have any latency tools that would run without X, so we get a baseline of 
what software layer is costing us how much? I recall that we do but 
latency-test at least does not. I am asking since the latency-sensitive gaming 
industry should have some strong incentive to look into what we are doing but I 
have not seen too much from them, yet. Ok - this may be something for another 
thread.

Best,
Steffen
