Have a part or version number? -Bari On 8/19/19 4:44 PM, Frank Tkalcevic wrote: > I've spent the last couple of weeks upgrading my atom based machine from > Ubuntu 10 (github+openssl incompatibilities), but I've had lots of problems > finding a modern distro that allows me to use the latest software (eg qtvcp) > because of library dependencies. > > I tried the LinuxCNC Stretch ISO, but that didn't work - running the latency > test never displayed a window and the mouse moved at one update every 5 > seconds.
