04:04 AM Tom_L: morning
04:06 AM Tom_L: 29F / 39F
04:48 AM JT-Cave: morning
05:08 AM lcnc-relay: <rakuyo13> Hello I'm a CNC beginner and I'm kind of lost in terms of getting my project started so any advice would be massively appreciated
06:09 AM lcnc-relay: <glenni> Give us a little bit more to go on and we can advice appropriately.
06:09 AM lcnc-relay: <glenni> What are you building? What hardware? Design goals? What will you be making? Etc 🙂
06:16 AM lcnc-relay: <rakuyo13> Right now I'm starting really small and just want to have linuxcnc running on both an rpi3 and rpi4
06:17 AM lcnc-relay: <rakuyo13> I know it's harder to do on a 3 but I've seen that there is ways
06:40 AM lcnc-relay: <glenni> Fwiw, I was unhappy with the performance running linuxcnc on my rpi 4, it would lag and not respond all of a sudden. I got an older desktop computer running it instead, and have been happy since.
06:40 AM lcnc-relay: <glenni> It might work well for you tho.
06:40 AM lcnc-relay: <glenni>
06:40 AM lcnc-relay: <glenni> Is there anything specific you are stuck at?
06:52 AM lcnc-relay: <rakuyo13> I'm aware it's not ideal to have it run on a rpi but I am trying to do a performance comparison between the two for a college project, following the instructions on the linuxcnc documentation I'm tryi
06:52 AM lcnc-relay: <rakuyo13> ng to use the rpi imager to flash an sd card with an the Linuxcnc image provided on the website but it fails to boot
08:29 AM * JT-Shop starts a couple of fires
11:34 AM lcnc-relay: <unterhausen> Last I checked, the rpi image from the lcnc website doesn't boot on newer pi4's. But this knowledge is stale, havent' tried it recently
11:34 AM lcnc-relay: <unterhausen> I would install debian and install lcnc using apt
12:05 PM lcnc-relay: <rakuyo13> I've tried that approach first but I ran into some issues, maybe I can send them here for feedback?
12:24 PM lcnc-relay: <unterhausen> were the issues debian-related or lcnc related?
12:32 PM lcnc-relay: <rakuyo13> Debian, technically raspberry pi OS related issues
12:43 PM lcnc-relay: <unterhausen> On the Pi3 or P4? You can ask about OS problems here, but I'm sure there are better resources
12:44 PM lcnc-relay: <rakuyo13> ive mainly been working on the pi3 but the 4 has been giving me similar issues
01:25 PM bjorkint0sh: https://www.construction-physics.com/p/what-happened-to-the-us-machine-tool
01:28 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> Does anyone have a full machine config online for Ethercat controlled servos + ProbeBasic or QTdragonHD? I am looking for examples to copy from not use directly.
01:28 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> I have my servos moving just looking for examples to help wrap my head around how all the config files need to look
01:37 PM roycroft: you know, bjorkint0sh, despite my being perceived as a "liberal", i've been decrying the outsourcing of critical infrastructure in the united states for decades
01:37 PM roycroft: we need to make stuff in this country for our citizens
01:37 PM roycroft: china needs to make stuff for its citizens
01:37 PM roycroft: all this outsourcing is both an ecological and national security disaster
01:38 PM bjorkint0sh: everything was outsourced by the fucking MBAs because of fucking greeeeed.
01:38 PM bjorkint0sh: they didn't realize that their outsourcing was a take over.
01:38 PM bjorkint0sh: except it was by a country.
01:38 PM bjorkint0sh: they thought the chinese were fools.
01:39 PM bjorkint0sh: A common mistake.
01:40 PM bjorkint0sh: "they're just going to give us their machine tools?! for? oh and we get to manufacture for them too??!"
01:42 PM bjorkint0sh: the MBAs gave factories away in exchange for nothing.
01:43 PM bjorkint0sh: fucking Jack Welch and the tomfoolery of those who think like him.
01:45 PM Tom_L: rakuyo13, Unterhausen, http://buildbot2.highlab.com/debian/dists/bookworm/2.9-uspace/
01:45 PM Tom_L: rpi images
01:45 PM Tom_L: armhf
01:46 PM Tom_L: wait.. those may not be legit yet
01:49 PM Tom_L: somewhere there's a newer image though
01:49 PM Tom_L: http://linuxcnc.org/downloads/
01:50 PM Tom_L: the one that says 2.9.2 is 2.9.1 unless they fixed that but i did install it and do an upgrade to 2.9.2 with no big issues
01:52 PM Tom_L: there are debs at the bottom as well
02:04 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> With the linucnc default simulation setups - is there a trick to get it to home?
02:04 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> https://jauriarts.org/_matrix/media/v1/download/jauriarts.org/IKRmprKvWwjDOvaYXdLmEGWM
02:04 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> I am getting those errors when hitting REF ALL - the Z works but the others do that
02:05 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> I guess Home All works on Axis GUI sim.. just not probe basic or QtDragonHD
02:06 PM Tom_L: axis is pretty solid
02:07 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> Maybe because development uses Axis as the main test environment the others need some updating of the simulation parameters?
02:08 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> this is a pretty fresh install of the current newest iso on downloads
02:09 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> is there such a thing as an Axis GUI with more advanced probing and ATC functions built in?
02:09 PM Tom_L: no
02:10 PM Tom_L: do a remap for the ATC
02:10 PM Tom_L: remap M6
02:10 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> okay thanks 🙂
02:11 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> do you use Axis?
02:11 PM Tom_L: yup
02:11 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> what is the difficulty in editing the GUI itself of axis vs qtdragon vs probe basic (if you have a rough idea)
02:12 PM Tom_L: http://tom-itx.no-ip.biz:81/~webpage/cnc/screenshots/Current_Linuxcnc_Axis_screen.png
02:12 PM Tom_L: http://tom-itx.no-ip.biz:81/~webpage/cnc/screenshots/Rotary_Axis_screenshot.png
02:12 PM Tom_L: i run 2 configs depending if i have the rotary installed
02:12 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> ahh nice! is that a forked version of Axis or just done with config files?
02:13 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> I'm still trying to understand all the levels of programming in this project
02:13 PM Tom_L: http://linuxcnc.org/docs/stable/html/gui/axis.html#_virtual_control_panel
02:19 PM Tom_L: hilo90mhz, both sets of configs for those are here: http://tom-itx.no-ip.biz:81/~webpage/cnc/configs/NEW_MILL_SHOP_2.8.4/
02:19 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> Thanks, I appreciate it
02:19 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> I like the raw apache web server 😉 I should run one again..
02:20 PM Tom_L: the main files for the pannel are display.xml postgui.hal and maybe another..
02:20 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> I went to Wordpress in 2010 and that kinda ruined the raw metal simplicity for me.. should just have stayed with html and apache https://hilo90mhz.com/
02:21 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> my website is just a mess now as I stopped updating it and the default theme got corrupted so thats just one thrown on the database
02:21 PM Tom_L: i have a html i just don't use it much anymore
02:22 PM Tom_L: http://tom-itx.no-ip.biz:81/~webpage/
02:22 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> this? http://tom-itx.no-ip.biz:81/~webpage/
02:22 PM Tom_L: the most recent are just raw files
02:22 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> Yeah I understand.. I more moved to github
02:24 PM Tom_L: JT-Shop, build or wait?
02:25 PM JT-Shop: build :)
02:25 PM Tom_L: cool... wanted to try the new script :)
02:26 PM roycroft: i run a gitlab server at home to manage my stuff
02:27 PM roycroft: gitlab is overkill for what i need to do, but the web interface is really nice
02:27 PM roycroft: although i don't use the web interface often - it's mostly git command from a shell
02:27 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> cool, I like not having to run anything if possible 😆 tired of maintaining things
02:27 PM roycroft: i hear you
02:28 PM roycroft: gitlab doesn't require much maintenance, which is another reason i use it
02:28 PM roycroft: once installed it just works, for the most part
02:28 PM roycroft: i also run nextcloud as a local cloud server so i can keep my various machines in sync
02:29 PM roycroft: so i can check out a repository on any of my machines, and changes i make on that machine will propagate to my other machines
02:30 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> neat! sounds convenient
02:30 PM Tom_L: JT-Shop, PR #76 up
02:33 PM JT-Shop: cool, script worked ok?
02:33 PM roycroft: it works well for me - i tried several other systems, but nextcloud + gitlab is what i settled on
02:33 PM Tom_L: JT-Shop, perfect.. i just added a couple lines at the top to delete the previous debs before building
02:33 PM roycroft: i use the lfs extensions for gitlab, so i can manage binary files in the repository without having huge amounts of bloat
02:35 PM Tom_L: and with the command in bash_history i just change the datestamp
02:48 PM Unterhaus_ is now known as Unterhausen
02:49 PM Unterhausen: I lol'd at the slip Lee Valley puts in with their plane blades to say they lapped to 16 microinches. I wonder if they got complaints they weren't lapped, because it doesn't look that good
02:51 PM Unterhausen: that's .4 micrometers, so I would think it would be shiny
02:54 PM Tom_L: how do you clear or remove an environment variable?
02:55 PM Tom_L: unset -f VAR?
03:00 PM JT-Woodshop: reboot...
03:00 PM Tom_L: haha
03:00 PM JT-Woodshop: steam box is steaming
03:15 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> https://jauriarts.org/_matrix/media/v1/download/jauriarts.org/crkRJEuKouQQqIAQdLLtGBSJ
03:15 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> The HAL scope is so cool!
03:20 PM Tom_L: JT-Woodshop, down to 1 cc compiler warning :)
03:20 PM JT-Woodshop: cool
03:21 PM -!- #linuxcnc mode set to +v by ChanServ
03:21 PM Tom_dev: DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=crossbuildcanrunhostbinaries dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -b --host-arch armhf
03:32 PM Tom_L: JT-Woodshop, on the scale calc, change the "Copy To" message from 'Joint' to 'Drive'
03:32 PM Tom_L: if one is unselected
03:32 PM JT-Shop: I thought I did
03:32 PM Tom_L: on the Error message
03:33 PM Tom_L: also i personally would list: Drive 0, 7i96S, X Axis
03:33 PM Tom_L: show the drive first
03:34 PM Tom_L: that's not that important but the tabs are visible from there and show the Drive numbers
03:35 PM JT-Shop: but there are 3 drive 0's
03:35 PM Tom_L: leave it like it is
03:35 PM Tom_L: :)
03:36 PM JT-Shop: for example if you select 5i25 + 7i76 + 7i76 you need to know which 7i76 you're about to send it to
03:36 PM JT-Shop: try it out
03:36 PM Tom_L: the order change was just for the calculator copy to
03:36 PM Tom_L: i haven't tested daughter cards that can also have drives
03:37 PM Tom_L: i see what you're saying now
04:14 PM JT-Shop: I had to add the port number to the daughter cards so you know which one your about to copy to
04:14 PM JT-Shop: working on my gui now and I think I want a short name for it...
04:23 PM roycroft: call it "cearc"
04:23 PM lcnc-relay: <satiowadahc#0> johnui like johnny but johnui
04:24 PM roycroft: thta is gaelic for "chicken"
04:24 PM JT-Shop: lol I like that
04:24 PM roycroft: pronounced kind of like "key-arch"
04:24 PM JT-Shop: the only one that called me Johnny was my grandmother
04:26 PM JT-Shop: I could use my initials JET
04:48 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> anyone familar with EtherCAT online? trying to add another axis to my single axis config
04:48 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> based on this config https://github.com/gchesney/linuxcnc-asda-b3-e-configs
04:49 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> https://github.com/gchesney/linuxcnc-asda-b3-e-configs/blob/main/ethercat-test.hal
04:50 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> ive duplicated the X into a Y axis.. But just not sure about these lines with lcec
04:50 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> net y-statusword lcec.0.0.cia-statusword => cia402.1.statusword
04:50 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> net x-statusword lcec.0.0.cia-statusword => cia402.0.statusword
04:50 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> IE I need to change the lcec part to reference the second axis
04:51 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> I believe the cia402.0 to 1 fixes that part
04:51 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> loadusr -W lcec_conf ethercat-test.xml
04:51 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> loadrt lcec
04:51 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> loadrt cia402 count=2
04:51 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> do I need to define another lcec user somehow?
04:53 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> If I try net y-statusword lcec.1.0.cia-statusword => cia402.1.statusword it errors out ./ethercat-test.hal:71: Pin 'lcec.1.0.cia-statusword' does not exist
04:54 PM JT-Shop: use https://paste.debian.net/ for code
04:55 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> ```net y-statusword lcec.1.0.cia-statusword => cia402.1.statusword```
04:55 PM Tom_L: is ethercat gonna be the new kid on the block now?
04:55 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> markdown in discord no good?
04:56 PM JT-Shop: nope it floods the channel
04:56 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> EtherCAT is amazing 🙂
04:56 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> no point to point wiring..
04:56 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> I dont even think the config is that complicated these days, its just not that well documented
04:58 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> looks beautiful in discord 😅
04:58 PM JT-Shop: floods here and looks ugly
04:59 PM Tom_L: it's bad enough trying to deciper the bridge nicks
04:59 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> and then im supposed to paste in this link? https://paste.debian.net/1304563/
04:59 PM JT-Shop: yup, they are way too long usually
05:00 PM JT-Shop: yes that is much nicer to read and doesn't flood the channel
05:00 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> okay.. ill probably just try to put it on github next time
05:01 PM Tom_L: most of my debian posts i set for 24hr
05:01 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> ahh I see thats the default
05:02 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> any hints on how this lcec thing works?
05:02 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> lcec.0.0.actual-position
05:02 PM JT-Shop: sorry no clue about cats
05:02 PM Tom_L: what's that on?
05:02 PM Tom_L: me either
05:03 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> okay will dig into it more
05:03 PM JT-Shop: the forum has a section for that
05:04 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> ahh I think I just havent defined another slave maybe in the xml file..
05:05 PM Tom_L: btw 90mhz is pretty slow by today's standards :)
05:06 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> that was my pirate radio station that ran for a few days 😉 still part of the FM band
05:06 PM Tom_L: i figured it had something to do with radio or ham etc
05:08 PM Tom_L: for christmas lights?
05:10 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> eh?
05:10 PM Tom_L: a few around here have fancy displays that broadcast xmas music etc
05:11 PM Tom_L: short distance
05:13 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> Oh no was just for fun when I was a teenager and built a 15w transmitter kit.. just because
05:17 PM JT-Shop: say goodnight Gracie
05:19 PM lcnc-relay: <satiowadahc#0> What's your ethercat conf file look like?
05:20 PM lcnc-relay: <satiowadahc#0> You can change your ethercat file to match your network
05:21 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> I think ive got it working now!
05:21 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> it was me not having added a second slave device to the XML! noob mistake..
05:22 PM lcnc-relay: <satiowadahc#0> "ethercat cstruct" and "ethercat pdos" are extremely useful commands for checking your network
05:23 PM lcnc-relay: <satiowadahc#0> Does backticks look bad across the bridge? Like`ethercat cstruct`?
05:25 PM JT-Shop: backticks do nothing here
05:25 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> https://github.com/clowrey/LinuxCNC-Fadal4020/blob/main/ethercat-cstruct-example-output
05:26 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> But I'm stoked! two motors spinning now!!
05:29 PM JT-Shop: nice
05:30 PM lcnc-relay: <satiowadahc#0> I've been in Industrial controls for 6 years now. Light turning on and motors spinning is still fascinating
05:31 PM lcnc-relay: <xxcoder> 🎉
05:34 PM * roycroft presents xxcoder with a shrubbery
05:34 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> if anyone is curious here are the two files I had to modify from the single servo example to make it work with 2 Delta ethercat servos https://github.com/clowrey/LinuxCNC-Fadal4020/tree/main/Delta-B3-
05:34 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> two-servo-test
05:35 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> And yes will never get tired of watching motors spinning 😄
05:36 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> I just made this video showing them spin so you can enjoy too 😉 ;P https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JabYjmYUI5U
05:49 PM lcnc-relay: <satiowadahc#0> Interesting... is there no premade lcec component for your device?
05:49 PM lcnc-relay: <satiowadahc#0> Which motors are you using?
05:56 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> is something different than you would expect?
05:56 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> the exact parts I have are all in my github repo readme here: https://github.com/clowrey/LinuxCNC-Fadal4020
05:59 PM lcnc-relay: <satiowadahc#0> Interesting I thought the cia402 had a driver not just the generic driver with pdos explicitly said
06:02 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> ya not sure.. im just getting started 🙂
06:03 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> I just uploaded this XML that is from Delta themselves.. I believe the guy i got the example from just used little pieces from that file.. as it is VERY extensive https://github.com/clowrey/LinuxCNC-F
06:03 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> adal4020/blob/main/delta-files/Delta%20ASDA-x3-E%20rev0.04.xml
06:04 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> 16k lines of XML haha
06:04 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> I bet John is glad I didn't paste that in here 😆
06:10 PM rene-dev2 is now known as rene-dev
06:10 PM Getty2 is now known as Getty
06:11 PM lcnc-relay: <satiowadahc#0> Looks like an export from twincat
06:13 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> Is twincat something I should have?
06:17 PM flyback is now known as fishhead
06:21 PM fishhead is now known as i8086
06:21 PM i8086 is now known as flyback
06:54 PM lcnc-relay: <nate.ster> hi all, im new and idk where to post this, so lmk if there is a better place. i'm trying to run 2.9 w/ the rtai kernel 5.4.258 (for parallel port output) but i'm getting a segfault.
06:54 PM lcnc-relay: <nate.ster>
06:54 PM lcnc-relay: <nate.ster> i've tried the debs from the apt repository and building myself from source. the exact commands i ran are here: https://gist.github.com/nathantsoi/e892965b2d97f735a51b707d4a3b1eff
06:54 PM lcnc-relay: <nate.ster>
06:54 PM lcnc-relay: <nate.ster> i tried qtdragon and axis, all to no avail. i attached the dmesg from the segfault. i think the key line is:
06:54 PM lcnc-relay: <nate.ster>
06:54 PM lcnc-relay: <nate.ster> `Jan 18 19:46:38 router kernel: axis[1586]: segfault at 0 ip 000000000055db9a sp 00007ffd409a9020 error 6 in python3.11[41f000+2b3000]`
06:54 PM lcnc-relay: <nate.ster>
06:54 PM lcnc-relay: <nate.ster> i'm a programmer and would be happy to try to debug this, but i'm not sure the best way to do this. should i build with debug symbols? can i attach a debugger (gdb?) seems like the segfault is maybe
06:54 PM lcnc-relay: <nate.ster> in python3.11. perhaps the solution is obvious and this is unnecessary?
06:54 PM lcnc-relay: <nate.ster>
06:54 PM lcnc-relay: <nate.ster> any direction is much appreciated!
07:06 PM Tom_L: http://linuxcnc.org/downloads/
07:06 PM Tom_L: nate.ster did you see the RTAI package at the bottom there?
07:07 PM Tom_L: not just the kernel, the Linuxcnc package
07:08 PM Tom_L: axis would be your best bet until you get it working
07:09 PM Tom_L: i haven't tried the newer RTAI kernel
07:15 PM lcnc-relay: <nate.ster> i just tried the deb (https://www.linuxcnc.org/dists/bookworm/2.9-rt/binary-amd64/linuxcnc_2.9.2_amd64.deb), same error: `Jan 18 20:14:22 router kernel: axis[2179]: segfault at 0 ip 00000000004facce s
07:15 PM lcnc-relay: <nate.ster> p 00007ffc69a7ca00 error 6 in python3.11[41f000+2b3000]`
07:17 PM lcnc-relay: <nate.ster> oh, and another strange thing, `latency-test` and the parallel port tester via `haltest -I -f ptest.hal` both work (on the deb from the repo, my built source, and the deb linked above)
07:23 PM Tom_L: dunno
07:35 PM lcnc-relay: <satiowadahc#0> Is there any benefit of rtai over preempt?
07:38 PM lcnc-relay: <nate.ster> the jitter on rtai is 1/10th of on preempt-rt
08:28 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> @roycroft "wonder if big_kevin420 has ever tried the blue arduino
08:28 PM lcnc-relay: "
08:28 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> yeah yeah, the blue arduino red cnc shield
08:28 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> did i hear someone say modding axis?
08:28 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> hilo90mhz (@_discord_519247101989748746:jauriarts.org)
08:29 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> haha just an idea.. I like changing things eventually once the base config is done
08:29 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> https://github.com/cakeslob/regularmac_800
08:29 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> I like that axis can be resized
08:30 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> well only kinda
08:30 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> with regularmac_800 you can resize the shit out of it
08:30 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> cool!
08:31 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> so if you wanna mod axis, you can use that as a starting pioint
08:31 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> it includes a gcode editor
08:31 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> Thanks! will think about it when the time comes
08:32 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> or try it out now 😉 its just an ini config option
08:33 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> yeah that is crazy simple
08:37 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> gives me error can't read "section": no such variable
08:40 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> interesting
08:41 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> put it in the default sim.axis/axis.ini
08:41 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> oh
08:41 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> resetart and open again
08:41 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> restart the machine?
08:41 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> i did restart axis
08:42 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> did it workl the secondf time?
08:44 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> Oooh theres a typo in your readme 😉
08:44 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> [DISLAY]USER_COMMAND_FILE=usercommand_regularmac_800.py
08:44 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> send a pr
08:44 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> missing a P
08:44 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> I think you can fix it 😉
08:44 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> ohh in display
08:44 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> did that make an error
08:45 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> what section of the ini should it go in?
08:46 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> lol display
08:46 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> i usually put it right under axis
08:47 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> [DISPLAY]
08:47 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> DISPLAY = axis
08:47 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420>
08:47 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> USER_COMMAND_FILE = usercommand_regularmac_800.py
08:47 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> i think it errors the firstg time because it creates the file
08:47 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> waitr
08:48 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> unless it doesnt creat the file
08:48 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> Ahh yeah put that in your Readme.. shows more clearly where to put it and full code
08:48 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> It worked!
08:48 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> I am still learning about the syntax of these ini files..
08:48 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> not like any other type of file I have worked with 😛
08:49 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> ok, i should put a thing about the error also
08:49 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> well it was probably because I had two display sections
08:49 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> and i was just putting it at the top of the file.. and it wasnt even spelled DISPLAY lol
08:50 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> so I wouldnt worry about error messages
08:51 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> i think it does error the first time because the prefs file isnt created yet
08:51 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> oh yeah could put note about that.. I wouldnt know I tried so many times
08:52 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> https://jauriarts.org/_matrix/media/v1/download/jauriarts.org/LCdxcTfgwgvfNjHdWDDfBzub
08:52 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> it looks pretty rough full screen 1080p - but I know it was meant for small screens
08:52 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> ok, now go into setup at the top
08:53 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> its a new menu after view
08:53 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> i see
08:53 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> that is neat!
08:53 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> yeah, theres a thing for the buttons to so they look better
08:53 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> the top ones antyways
08:54 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> shit i left the WIP probe menu in there
08:54 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> thats fine.. nice to see its an idea
08:55 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> easy to remove
08:55 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> but yeah, id make the text size bigger, use button lable option, and play with colours
08:55 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> sand save pref and bam
08:56 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> your button images are all different?
08:56 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> damn, i need to make those sliders scale in size
08:56 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> i didnt want to code them in yet
08:56 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> so i just put mine in lcnc source
08:56 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> did you like the buttons?
08:57 PM lcnc-relay: <unterhausen> the bridge really messes up IRC
08:57 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> yeah its neat! I just need to get my machine functional first..
08:59 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> ok, i oput them in repo
08:59 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> messes up how?
08:59 PM lcnc-relay: <big_kevin420> i have no remorse
09:02 PM lcnc-relay: <hilo90mhz> I am curious too
