It's fantastic everything works, even qtpyvcp, and the qt designer to edit the qtpyvcp panel, and probe_basic too. I just need a larger screen because probe_basic display is too large for my screen. ___ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users

Most of them only need the firmware once, and it can be kept anywhere. 5i20, 7i43 etc, which load the firmware at every boot, need the bitfles to be in /lib/firmware/hm2 -- atp "A motorcycle is a bicycle with a pandemonium attachment and is designed for the especial use of mechanical geniuses, daredevils and lunatics." — George Fitch, Atlanta Constitution Newspaper, 1912 ___ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users

[Emc-users] hostmot2-firmware built, but failing to install
the make process completes but dpkg-builpackage terminates with Error 2 later I will post details. btw, it was necessary to trick Xilinx to build on 64 bits, basically: mv .../lin to .../lin32 mv .../lin64 to .../lin that way it builds. ___ Emc-users mailing list Emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/emc-users
