The hang was on initial linuxcnc startup. No toolpath was loaded.
I can only think of a few possibilities. (I am not saying that there
are not many others, I am saying that my imagination is limited)
One obvious difference between running LinuxCNC and not running
LinuxCNC is starting the realtime subsystem.
To check this:
Does the LinuxCNC latency test run?
Does the RTAI-provided latency test run? (probably in
/usr/realtime/testsuite/kernel/ I am not at a LinuxCNC machine right
now to check)
It might be graphics, Axis uses OpenGL.
Does glxgears work?
Does LinuxCNC also crash of you use a non-GL GUI such as tklinuxcnc or
Touchy? (sim configs exist to test this)
It will be some time before I get back to this. My old MB only has two
SATA connections. One is a DVD. I have been physically changing disk
drives to get a usable system or to test buster. I damaged a cable
today, my last spare...
I have wheezy on one disk and buster on another. Today I tried putting
wheezy as the boot drive and buster in place of the DVD connection.
Boot OK. Update-grub failed. Seems that wheezy can not read the buster
disk. Metadata checksum problem. I want wheezy to be the default boot.
When I get time, I will reverse the disk drives and see if buster can
read the wheezy disk.
