I usually change isolcpus in my grub file under /etc/default. You can use sudo nano /etc/default/grub, ctrl+s to save, ctrl+x to close, then accept the change with sudo update-grub Phil T. The Feral Engineer Check out my LinuxCNC tutorials, machine builds and other antics at

Greetings folks; Experimenting with various ways to see if I can find out why the initial homing is so slow and loaded with windup effects, effects that do not seem to affect the stepper driven axises. It takes at least 5 seconds for it to get up to search speed, and another 5 seconds to get
