I cleaned out my mill control computer, installed a fresh copy of Debian 8.7.1 and machinekit as a standalone dev configuration.The Bridgeport clone milling machine I’m using for development work uses a Mesa 7i80 card with a network address of 10.10.10.2. Under the original configuration using linuxcnc all works just fine, but with machinekit there appears to be no communications path to the Mesa 7i80 card.


Build a RIP of linuxcnc on the same machine and try running with that.
That will immediately remove any OS specific problems from the equation, if it works.

When my .hal file attempts to read line 35, ‘addf hm2_[HOSTMOT2](BOARD).0.read   servo thread’  it errors out. I assume that this is likely caused by not being able to use the uspace option during the build process


The uspace thing was just jeplers way of enabling linuxcnc to run on rt-preempt, as machinekit had been doing for years.

Try the debug print as Bas suggested

which makes me suspect that I’m missing a configuration step to get that process going.  Anyone have any info on how this needs to be done?


I'm also a little confused with difference between internet links to machinekit and machinekit.io.
