Well, I kind of feel like an idiot now. I had installed Preempt_rt and checked 
with “uname -a” to verify that I was running preempt_rt.
However, when I rebooted it didn’t boot into the preempt_rt kernel. So when I 
rebooted into the preempt_rt kernel linuxcnc would run normally.

I used Synaptic to remove the non-preempt_rt kernels to avoid the future 
problem.
Linux alans-optiplex 5.10.0-19-rt-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_RT Debian 5.10.149-2 
(2022-10-21) x86_64 GNU/Linux

I am running a 5i25 / 7i76 pair of boards. Should that have the dpll in it? It 
doesn’t appear to have it.  Is there a new version of the firmware that I could 
flash it with.
