[00:01:28] <PetefromTn> mevon: Hey man do you have Home ignore limits set to yes?
[00:02:18] <PetefromTn> also do you use an index pulse to home to once the physical switch is tripped like on my machine?
[00:03:46] <PetefromTn> Is this thing on LOL?

[01:10:56] <PetefromTn> Tom_itx: Have you been making anything cool lately?
[01:11:08] <jesseg> Hey, do you know if there is a metric sister to "Nema" motor size standards? I'm trying to find a DC motor size with 50mm or 49.875mm between bolts (square pattern.)

[01:20:08] <CaptHindsight> http://www.piclist.com/techref/io/stepper/nemasizes.htm
[01:20:46] <CaptHindsight> PetefromTn: yes for the Bolt Hole Distance
[01:21:07] <PetefromTn> CaptHindsight: yes what?
[01:21:13] <jesseg> The motor I need must be a Nema 23.75 :P
[01:21:34] <PetefromTn> Do you have a specific mount?
[01:21:34] <jesseg> it's a bit bigger than a nema 23, but way smaller than a 34
[01:21:59] <jesseg> Four holes in a square pattern, 50mm or 49.875mm between near corners
[01:22:06] -!- c-bob has quit [Ping timeout: 245 seconds]
[01:22:12] <jesseg> I'll probably have to make an adapter
[01:22:17] -!- c-bob [c-bob!~c@unaffiliated/c-bob] has joined #linuxcnc
[01:22:24] <PetefromTn> Is there a circular boss area inside it?
[01:22:32] <jesseg> for centering? Yes.
[01:22:45] <jesseg> Oh. The old motor has. But the mount doesn't use it.
[01:23:09] <jesseg> I was just hoping that there was a metric equiv of standardized motor sizes like nema but metric based ;)
[01:23:39] <CaptHindsight> sounds like it's not a standard size
[01:24:07] <jesseg> It's an old German made 5.5x5 foot mylar CNC cutter thing. Made in Hamburg. The motors are 5-phase stepper motors but I want DC motors
[01:24:56] <PetefromTn> You might be able to make an adapter that turns the motor 45 degrees
[01:26:09] <jesseg> I don't know. I can see some German engineers sitting around a table saying "Hmmph. Let's make the holes 50mm apart, in a square. ya. ya. gutensize." haha
[01:26:24] -!- voxadam [voxadam!voxadam@unaffiliated/voxadam] has joined #linuxcnc
[01:26:39] <jesseg> but yes I'll probably have to make an adapter.
[01:26:50] <PetefromTn> Can you weld up the holes and redrill them?
[01:28:25] <CaptHindsight> looks like there is a nema24
[01:28:27] <jesseg> It would probably be easier to just do like you said and make an adapter plate.
[01:28:47] <jesseg> I also need a metric shaft..
[01:28:50] <jesseg> =D
[01:30:50] <MacGalempsy> alright. the encoders are 8 wire
[01:31:03] <CaptHindsight> yeah it's a nema 24
[01:31:06] <MacGalempsy> they just used a 10 plug cable
[01:31:17] <CaptHindsight> http://www.stepperonline.com/images/drawing/drawing-24HS22-2006S.jpg
[01:31:30] <MacGalempsy> but need to run out. will catch everyone in an hour, or so
[01:31:44] -!- MacGalempsy has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[01:33:28] <jesseg> Hmm. Nema 24 is supposed to be 2.4 inches square.
[01:34:53] <CaptHindsight> 60mm sq = 2.362"
[01:35:11] <jesseg> Hmm.
[01:35:21] <PetefromTn> http://img.diytrade.com/cdimg/1268547/14621258/0/1283428768/Nema_24_Stepper_Motors.jpg
[01:35:27] <jesseg> thanks
[01:35:31] <PetefromTn> sounds like capn is right. Nema 24
[01:36:00] <CaptHindsight> never noticed the odd size before
[01:37:04] <jesseg> I left my calipers at my shop but the motor does seem to be 2 & 3/8 outside - which is 60.325mm -- so I'll bet you are right
[01:37:23] <CaptHindsight> jesseg: and you want to find a brushless DC equivalent?
[01:37:36] <jesseg> Brushed would be better
[01:37:42] <jesseg> but brushless would be acceptable :P
[01:39:12] <jesseg> Hmm. That nema 24 diagram shows a 10mm shaft it looks like...?
[01:39:18] <CaptHindsight> http://www.fastechcn.com/productcon.asp?id=697
[01:39:44] <jesseg> I need a 4 or 5 or maybe 6 mm shaft. (I measured it but forgot what it was, but it was an integer mm shaft.)
[01:40:33] -!- micges has quit [Quit: Wychodzi]
[01:41:51] <jesseg> That one has 8mm shaft it looks like
[01:42:14] <PetefromTn> you can buy couplers with different sized shaft collars of course..
[01:42:38] <PetefromTn> http://www.leadshine.com/productdetail.aspx?type=products&category=easy-servo-products&productype=easy-servo-motors&series=ES-M&model=ES-M22430
[01:44:01] <jesseg> I wouldn't want to know the price on that stepper
[01:44:09] <PetefromTn> its a servo..
[01:44:16] <jesseg> It's both :-)
[01:44:28] <jesseg> At least it calls it both.
[01:44:30] -!- Thetawaves [Thetawaves!~theta@114-68-237-24.gci.net] has joined #linuxcnc
[01:44:41] <jesseg> No reason a stepper with an encoder can't operate like a servo :)
[01:44:49] <PetefromTn> yeah sorry you are correct.
[01:44:50] <jdh> no torque
[01:45:00] <jesseg> jdh, huh?
[01:45:04] -!- Thetawaves_ [Thetawaves_!~Thetawave@114-68-237-24.gci.net] has joined #linuxcnc
[01:45:17] <PetefromTn> 425 oz in in a nema 24 isn't too shabby methinks.
[01:45:33] <jdh> they have no high speed torque. They are just steppers with feedback
[01:46:15] <jesseg> Years ago I did an interesting experiment. I attached the encoder from an old inkjet printer to the back of a stepper from a laser printer (Perhaps a nema 34.)
[01:46:27] <CaptHindsight> what speed and torque do you need?
[01:46:30] <PetefromTn> Not sure the application here but its probably not too big a deal.
[01:47:07] <jesseg> Then I made a driver circuit controlled by a PIC micro to run it as a brushless DC motor. It ran great!
[01:47:35] <jesseg> No particularly outstanding speed or torque. I'm toying with the idea of just putting encoders on the steppers and using those.
[01:48:11] <PetefromTn> Is this a milling machine?
[01:48:31] <jesseg> Anyway, running the stepper as a brushless motor worked so well. I was able to program the PIC to advance the timing above a certain speed, so at low speeds it had full torque (and lots of it) and above a certain speed it actually ran at 180 degrees of advance..
[01:48:46] <jesseg> PetefromTn, more light duty than a milling machine.
[01:49:07] <PetefromTn> I'd probably just use some quality steppers then and be done with it.
[01:50:12] <jesseg> This sort of thing: http://b.goistatic.com/data/auctions/Auction16801/Dana_ByUID/3214223.jpg
[01:50:15] <CaptHindsight> brushed DC motors are easy to find as well
[01:50:44] <CaptHindsight> flatbed cheese slicer?
[01:50:50] <jesseg> I do intend to use it for 3D milling of styrofoam
[01:50:55] <jesseg> LOL sure.
[01:51:05] <jesseg> It can cut out patterns in thin material
[01:51:07] <PetefromTn> Looks like it has zero Z..
[01:51:33] <jesseg> The head had a solenoid that would raise/lower the cutter, and a servo to set the direction
[01:51:51] <PetefromTn> is it a drag knife machine?
[01:51:57] <jesseg> yeah
[01:52:20] <jesseg> with a 0.0002 inch resolution (encoder separate from motor, but in same gear train.)
[01:52:29] -!- almccon has quit [Quit: Leaving.]
[01:52:31] <PetefromTn> cool..you can make some cool stuff with it. I'd probably install a High speed spindle to do engraving work.
[01:52:49] <jesseg> exactly.. over a 5x5.5 foot area
[01:54:00] <jdh> that's a lotta area
[01:54:21] <jesseg> yeah
[01:55:38] <jesseg> well thanks very much for your help guys!
[01:56:11] <jesseg> At least I have a shot at a nema 24 motor.. if I can find one on ebay. It's a personal project so it can't cost big buckaroos
[01:56:20] <jesseg> but now I know what to lurk for on ebay..!
[01:56:58] <PetefromTn> Good luck dude!!

[02:16:50] <somenewguy> some people get all the fun toys
[02:17:15] <jdh> nice, have your run one?
[02:17:23] <somenewguy> glad I am notthe only one who lays out "totally temporary" electronics rigs on plywood
[02:18:01] <jdh> he didn't even splurge on real plywood!
[02:18:33] <jdh> even looks like my wiring. Assuming there are no wire labels.
[02:18:34] <somenewguy> mine is partical boardtoo
[02:18:38] <somenewguy> but reinforced of course
[02:18:56] <somenewguy> with concrete residue cause it used to be a form from when I built my grill lol
[02:19:07] <somenewguy> I like the din rail tho, adds a pro touch
[02:19:19] <jdh> yeah, could use some panduit
[02:19:36] <somenewguy> does a mid sizedmill like that havea technical name tho? looks pretty perfect for me, esp the simple drainage
[02:20:05] <kwallace> I wanted to get everything working before I committed to a real equipment box.

[02:21:17] <jdh> new?
[02:22:01] <kwallace> I have no idea. This one was here in a week.
[02:22:34] <somenewguy> oh cool
[02:22:44] <somenewguy> only ever heard of torchmate, never actually looked at the product lines
[02:23:02] <jdh> tormach
[02:28:33] <somenewguy> wait
[02:28:35] <somenewguy> really?
[02:28:42] <somenewguy> are those two different companies
[02:28:48] <somenewguy> or have I been reading it wrong this whole timme
[02:29:13] <skunkworks_> kwallace: I forget - are you getting one of the beta lathes?
[02:29:19] <skunkworks_> * or got..

[02:32:11] <skunkworks_> cool - more wizard type screens?
[02:32:26] <kwallace> Yes.
[02:32:53] <skunkworks_> Nice work! that should really help get some of the tormach userbase to linuxcnc
[02:34:52] <kwallace> I'm anxious to get what we have released, but not about some of the feedback we might get. :)

[06:18:28] <kwallace> MacGalempsy: How is the Benchman coming along?
[06:18:49] <MacGalempsy> coming along well. got an idea about all major electrical.
[06:19:11] <MacGalempsy> catalogue of components, seems to be going well
[06:19:52] <MacGalempsy> still a couple of mysteries, but nothing mind boggleing yet
[06:20:45] <kwallace> Did you find what the encoders connect to?
[06:21:33] <MacGalempsy> yes. the encoders are really just 8 wires, they just used a 10wire harness to bring it to the main board
[06:21:52] <MacGalempsy> even pulled specs for them off the internet
[06:22:03] <kwallace> Did you also have tachometers?
[06:22:53] <MacGalempsy> there is lead to the tach. I will start a microsoft 1notebook to manage the project

[06:24:16] <MacGalempsy> they are pretty heavy duty. the encoders are tamagawa incremental encoders with a resolution of 2500 c/t
[06:24:25] <MacGalempsy> 8 pole encoders
[06:25:28] <MacGalempsy> 3:6phase wire-saving type (whatever that means)
[06:26:20] <MacGalempsy> worst part of the deal is I ran out of labels for my lable maker
[06:26:28] <MacGalempsy> and the store is closed
[06:27:03] <kwallace> I was thinking differential signals as A+ A- B+ B- Z+ Z- Power Ground, but I guess not.
[06:27:52] <MacGalempsy> they have that
[06:28:14] <MacGalempsy> let me grab the book. there were two more in addition to that
[06:28:25] <MacGalempsy> wait, yeah, 8 wires

[13:49:37] <mevon> hello everyone
[13:49:56] <mevon> i need help setting my limit switches seems i never get this part right
[13:50:42] <kwallace> Howdy.
[13:51:31] <mevon> hi kwal
[13:54:12] <mevon> think thats what i was looking for http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Homing_And_Limit_Switch
[13:56:24] <kwallace> I always set up separate limit and home switches for each axis. It makes for more wiring, but I would rather put in a couple more hours wiring on something I'll live with for years.
[13:58:40] -!- gambakufu [gambakufu!~ah@bzq-84-110-39-3.red.bezeqint.net] has joined #linuxcnc
[13:58:51] <mevon> kwallace ok maybe you got a pricey machine too... lets says it was made of cardboard and you dont really care... seems putting min max and home on the same input signal needs some special configs in the machine.ini

[14:03:27] -!- kiw has quit [Ping timeout: 272 seconds]
[14:03:39] <mevon> I did it that way because I have 4 accessible inputs on my board
[14:04:16] <kwallace> I don't see it that way. A smaller, cheaper machine should be trivial to wire. A dual parallel port card is $15. There are more lines of HAL to type, but the logic is more straight forward and LinuxCNC reacts better when it knows where a limit or home event comes from.
[14:05:34] <mevon> but on the other hand,its supposed to work with 1 input for all the switches
[14:08:10] <mevon> and what ever switch is tripped, the outcome is the same, machine stops
[14:08:19] <mevon> except the homes
[14:08:35] <kwallace> But then the operator has more the handle to clear an event, though if the soft limits are set up properly a firm limit should not happen. I just prefer to do the wiring.

[14:10:25] -!- kiw has quit [Ping timeout: 272 seconds]
[14:11:35] <kwallace> I feel it's best, to have home and encoder index used for homing.
[14:12:31] -!- stillme [stillme!~lordstiyk@41.203.69.4] has joined #linuxcnc
[14:13:44] <kwallace> That way the machine is homed to the same accuracy as the working accuracy.
[14:16:08] <mevon> maybe but it dosent help me solve my trouble
[14:16:24] <mevon> and maybe its not even that that gives the troubles
[14:16:35] <mevon> lokks like my switches are bouncing

[14:21:48] <mevon> and when latching after home, the move put the switch in a bouncing state where it barely touches it
[14:22:53] <kwallace> You can use hardware or software (HAL) debouncing. I prefer hardware. With an oscilloscope, you should see a clean On and Off.
[14:23:16] <mevon> kwallace: thanks for the advices, I dont knowmuch about cnc and milling bots but your advices were good, i will consider on the next one I build

[14:24:31] <kwallace> Look at low pass filters. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-pass_filter
[14:25:02] -!- stillme has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds]
[14:26:17] <mevon> humm no it looks like my switch is sensible to vibration where its left by the latching
[14:26:47] <mevon> maybe i shoukld add an offset?
[14:29:21] <kwallace> The filter will hold the switch state long enough for the software to react. If the switch state constantly changes, the software is always playing catch up, keeping the switch at the On/Off border.
[14:30:31] <mevon> im never using tact switch again
[14:31:07] -!- b_b has quit [Changing host]
[14:31:15] <mevon> the offset ensures that Im not near the llimit
[14:32:19] -!- terabyte- has quit [Quit: terabyte-]
[14:32:41] <kwallace> The filter will delay the signal while the switch comes to a steady state.
[14:34:01] <mevon> well i guess if youd see it youd understand what im trying to say
[14:34:15] <mevon> it sure is the best to low pass the switch signal
[14:35:22] <mevon> but the way it was acting im pretty sure no filter can do anything about it
[14:35:23] <MacGalempsy> ahhh. a successful night. mevon you figure out the homing issue?
[14:35:30] <mevon> yup
[14:35:34] <mevon> just did
[14:35:54] <mevon> my feeble tact switches as limit switches were the culprites
[14:36:30] -!- stillme [stillme!~lordstiyk@41.203.69.4] has joined #linuxcnc
[14:36:36] <mevon> so when backing off, latching left the carriage on a critical spot where any small vibration would trip the switch back on
[14:36:43] -!- stillme1 has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds]
[14:37:30] <mevon> i just added a home offset
[14:37:44] <mevon> so I dont stay at that spot
[14:40:04] <mevon> can anyone tell me what the "Touch Off"is for?
[14:40:44] <cradek> setting a workpiece origin or a tool offset
[14:41:18] <kwallace> A filter, debounce or offset can all do the same or similar thing.

[15:40:52] <kwallace2> I don't see anything there that looks like a data connection but I could be wrong.
[15:42:35] <MacGalempsy> i mean i/o as data

[15:49:19] <kwallace2> Per axis, it looks like two PC outputs, a digital out for enable, an analog out for +/- velocity command. Inputs to the PC are digital Fault and the rest are gravy. The tach comes from the tachometer mounted with the encoder and usually does go to the PC. But my set up doesn't use a tach, so add salt.

[15:52:12] <mevon> what is the utility of microstepping?
[15:54:20] <kwallace2> Micro stepping can give you a little more resolution, resistance to harmonics, smoother motion.

[15:55:33] <archivist> mevon, http://www.micromo.com/microstepping-myths-and-realities.aspx
[15:56:15] <archivist> if stalling then increase current and reduce the acceleration rate
[15:56:18] <mevon> so micro step is bad for tork
[15:56:23] <archivist> yes
[15:57:09] <archivist> it is good for resonance, but not much else
[15:57:40] <kwallace2> Ahh, not always. Such as half-stepping vs. micro.

[15:58:18] <archivist> I use half step, but that is all
[15:59:50] <kwallace2> My half stepping has _half_ of the steps using one coil so less torque on those steps. Whereas if I had a micro stepper drive two coils would be active all the time.

[16:07:05] <archivist> by definition half step has a coil not energised why would a microstepping drive be different
[16:11:40] <kwallace2> Oops, that is now a recollection that I would have to research to back up. I believe it is like brushless motors where the PWM is mixed on all coils to produce, overall, a rotating field.
[16:11:59] <kwallace2> ?
[16:12:11] <pcw_home> one coil is at 0 when the other is at maximum
[16:12:53] <kwallace2> I'm also assuming four coils total.
[16:13:17] <pcw_home> but still 2 phase
[16:13:18] <archivist> if and only if the driver did a 1/4 lead,1/4 lag as half step would it be true
[16:14:03] <pcw_home> and only higher torque 1/2 of the time
[16:14:05] <archivist> most use a bipolar drive 2 coil effectively
[16:15:36] <CaptHindsight> archivist: any idea of why there is a nema 23 and 24 size for motors?
[16:15:57] <archivist> no idea, historical I suppose

[20:54:03] <mevon> we are all blessed when your here andy
[20:55:23] -!- stillme has quit [Ping timeout: 248 seconds]
[20:57:13] <mevon> andypugh: do you remember me?
[20:57:41] <mevon> i was the guy 1 or 2 years ago always asking about a USB controler
[20:57:50] <andypugh> The name is familair.
[20:58:17] <andypugh> But I refuse to believe I have been here that long :-)
[20:58:32] <mevon> denial
[20:58:34] <mevon> :P
[20:58:43] <mevon> but no it was earlier this year
[20:59:36] <mevon> december last year but the thing "worked" I ended up making my own firmware with a RTOS on the arduino, etc.
[21:00:00] <mevon> now there is a software that does it all it seems, with 3d printer electronics
[21:01:42] <mevon> I havent tried it yet but looks nice http://reprap.org/wiki/CNCGcodeController
[21:01:46] -!- FinboySlick has quit [Quit: Leaving.]
[21:03:08] <mevon> of course its nothing like a cnc cam or anything close to emc2 but when I converted some cnc design to 3d printer gcode, i had better results then with my costum firmware
[21:04:48] <andypugh> You can run the full LinuxCNC on a Beagle Bone Black, or Raspberry Pi. The Arduino seems a bit of a dead end that way.
[21:05:35] <andypugh> I am waiting for a UDOO board, that runs Linux, but has something a lot like an Arduino (with the same pinout) on-board. SOunds like fun.
[21:07:32] <mevon> yeah but for ppl with a 3d printer / elctronics, it might be simpler. all the physics implied in cnc are not so present in 3d printers, performance are slower and its not real time but it serve well the purpous for the non initiated of linux cnc
[21:08:01] <mevon> and if you only want to "engrave" pcb
[21:09:00] <andypugh> There is room for everyone. LinuxCNC doesn't have to take over the world, we don't even make any money from it. (I can't see why we are quite to territorial about it, in fact)
[21:10:04] <_DJ_> gn8
[21:10:09] <mevon> I have got myself some nice Leonardo Arduino small and cheap (10$ each from china) and also got some MK803 android IPTV (kinda like a Raspi with more meat but no I/O) that are cheap also
[21:10:55] <CaptHindsight> somebody needs to port the radar screen from printrun to linuxcnc http://www.buildlog.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/printrun1.jpg
[21:11:06] -!- _DJ_ has quit [Quit: bye]
[21:11:26] <mevon> well CNC and 3d printers are like the frogs and the turtles
[21:13:02] <mevon> and will all end up as Megatron's junk...
[21:13:41] <mevon> oh mighty robot leaders
[21:13:46] * mevon bows
[21:14:50] <CaptHindsight> as a joke
[21:15:04] <mevon> hummm i hope

[21:28:18] <andypugh> Sorry it is so hard. But it got to the state where JT and I were deleting 1000+ spammers a day _each_. And we were probably deleting about as many real users as we miss now because security is too high. But at least now we get to do our day-jobs.

[21:31:01] <ggpwnkthx> @andy I feel your pain. I also noticed the almost obbsesive use of anti-bot systems when signing up.
[21:32:17] <CaptHindsight> spammers were hacking the wiki as well
[21:33:00] <ggpwnkthx> Have you guys thought about moving away from using Joomla?
[21:33:03] <CaptHindsight> with links to viagra and similar
[21:34:09] <ggpwnkthx> It's pretty popular these days, but has had a rather lax stance on security. Although I have my biases. (developer)

[21:36:27] <ggpwnkthx> Ever able to trace the souce?
[21:38:18] <CaptHindsight> not sure, but if you're trying to keep the site going with as little hands on from administrators you want to make the site easy for anyone to add to
[21:38:32] <andypugh> We were hacked in a most cunning way for a while. Everything looked fine _except_ if your browser-ID was the Hoogle bot
[21:38:41] <andypugh> (Google, that is)
[21:39:11] <CaptHindsight> the down side is people that feel that any site not locked down tight is fair game to deface with adverts for their crap for sale
[21:39:43] <andypugh> If you altered your user-agent in your browser you saw completely different content. All very clever, but I have absolutely no idea how the hacker expected to profit from it.
[21:39:56] <ggpwnkthx> @andy: wow, that sounds pretty low level [read: server side]
[21:40:36] <ggpwnkthx> as if someone was coming through from the back door, so to speak
[21:40:57] <andypugh> I had my oen private web site hacked a couple of years ago. It became, randomly, a perfectly innocuous carpet hop, with no way to buy anything. No idea what that was about either.
[21:41:01] -!- seb_kuzminsky has quit [Read error: Operation timed out]
[21:42:03] <CaptHindsight> too many easy to use tools for kids with too much time on their hands
[21:42:06] <andypugh> It's kind of annoying to have your stuff spoiled, and for the hacker to not even remember to add the "(3) make profit" part
[21:42:28] <ggpwnkthx> Years ago, I had an account with (i think it was StarHosting or Star something), and you could easily see and manipulate other people's via CGI because they forgot to lock that down.

[22:35:56] -!- tmcw has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
[22:35:56] <andypugh> it can be done...
[22:36:11] <draconlord> good mind telling me how ?
[22:36:26] <andypugh> The hardest part is not LinuxCNC, it's the real-time kernael part.
[22:36:26] <draconlord> if u have time i mean :D
[22:36:58] <draconlord> yeah thats what i've been afraid of
[22:38:13] <draconlord> i doubt that if i bugged the current kernel i'd be spending the next couple weekends doing a fresh install :S
[22:39:30] <andypugh> More information that you probably want is here: http://static.mah.priv.at/public/html/common/UnifiedBuild.html
[22:40:19] <andypugh> I think that it might be easier than that, though.
[22:40:37] <andypugh> (I haven't really been paying attention)
[22:41:02] <andypugh> What is it about 12.04 that you want?
[22:42:00] -!- almccon has quit [Quit: Leaving.]
[22:42:35] <draconlord> all my stuff, programs, etc
[22:43:25] <draconlord> plus the ubuntu 10.4 is technically dead !
[22:43:32] <PCW> I think there was talk of making a rtai 12.04 kernel deb
[22:43:46] <Valen> 10.4 will keep running till 2015
[22:44:14] <draconlord> last time i tried it it didnt fetch any updates
[22:44:42] <draconlord> PCW any progress on such topic ?
[22:45:05] <PCW> have to ask in guru space
[22:45:12] <Valen> there may not be any updates for it to fetch?
[22:45:23] <Valen> IE it may be all up to date?
[22:45:30] <Valen> or do you mean a fresh install
[22:45:44] <draconlord> fresh install
[22:46:01] <Valen> did you get an error message?
[22:46:37] <draconlord> yes told me to update this dirtro cause its not supported anymore EOL i guess
[22:47:05] <Valen> nah
[22:47:14] <Valen> thats just ubuntu wanting you to jump to 12.04
[22:47:22] <CaptHindsight> sebs .debs should work with 12.04
[22:47:27] <Valen> the LTS releases are supported for 5 years
[22:47:41] <Valen> ignore that bit, and keep updating the system you are on
[22:48:40] -!- thomaslindstr_m has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
[22:49:06] <draconlord> i luved 10.4 was my 1st experince with linux over windows now um stuck with 12.04 which is by all means bloated with crap and eye candies
[22:49:12] <CaptHindsight> the main problem with Ubuntu is dealing with all the little changes they make to almost everything
[22:49:43] <Valen> yup
[22:49:53] <Valen> you can get gnome into 12.04 mostly
[22:49:58] <andypugh> I may be in a minority here, but I don't mind Unity, other than it being different.
[22:49:59] <CaptHindsight> RTAI makes lots of changes to the kernel so lots of testing is required to find any bugs or incompatibilities
[22:50:23] <Valen> i use multiple monitors, unity sucks
[22:50:47] <PCW> Ive gotten used to unity also, doesn't bother me
[22:50:56] <draconlord> so cant linuxcnc run on any other linux distro with real-time kernel other than ubuntu ?
[22:51:26] <Valen> I hate the hoops you need to jump through to actually have multiple instances of an application running
[22:51:27] <CaptHindsight> draconlord: we use it with gentoo quite well
[22:51:49] <Valen> you can use it on anything you can get rtai running on i guess ;->
[22:52:01] <Valen> with enough work ;->
[22:52:25] <draconlord> sorry my linux background is some how limited to ubuntu
[22:53:00] <draconlord> but i dont mind the change as long as its compitable with the hardware and my program needs !
[22:53:05] <Valen> if all you want is to cut metal, put the 10.04 CD in, hit go and ignore the bit about 12.04
[22:53:08] <CaptHindsight> https://github.com/ShabbyX/RTAI/blob/master/README.INSTALL here is how to build a RTAI kernel from scratch
[22:54:53] <draconlord> checking gentoo ..
[22:55:31] <CaptHindsight> http://highlab.com/~seb/linuxcnc/rtai-for-3.4-prerelease/ here are the debs
[22:55:43] <andypugh> draconlord: I suspect that is just a way to make your life even harder.
[22:56:14] <andypugh> I don't think anyone ever acused Gentoo of being easier than Ubuntu
[22:56:15] <CaptHindsight> 1) Install Ubuntu Precise 12.04 32-bit.
[22:56:29] <CaptHindsight> 2) Fetch and install the the "-1-rtai" debs of the Shabby/Memleak RTAI
[22:56:30] <CaptHindsight> from here: http://highlab.com/~seb/linuxcnc/rtai-for-3.4-prerelease/
[22:56:42] <CaptHindsight> 3) Reboot to the RTAI kernel.
[22:56:55] <CaptHindsight> 4) Fetch the git repo at linuxcnc.org.
[22:57:11] <CaptHindsight> 5) Build 2.5 or master (both should work).
[22:57:28] <CaptHindsight> 6) Try it out and let us know!
[22:57:51] <draconlord> working on it
[22:58:16] <draconlord> but a noob question is there a sequence for the deb install ? =)

[22:59:49] <andypugh> If you open the debs from Firefox I think they just get installed (after a check or two)
[23:00:34] <draconlord> nah i mean what gets installed first ?
[23:02:32] <CaptHindsight> Ubuntu Precise 12.04 32-bit
[23:02:58] <CaptHindsight> then the RTAI kernel .deb
[23:03:04] <andypugh> OS, then alternative kernel, then LinuxCNC
[23:03:10] <Valen> CaptHindsight: any difference in latency?
[23:03:19] <draconlord> does it have to be a fresh install ?
[23:03:31] <CaptHindsight> Valen: what are we comparing?
[23:03:33] <draconlord> as i already have my ubuntu running
[23:04:08] <Valen> 10.4 vs 12.04
[23:04:30] <CaptHindsight> it's the same
[23:04:48] -!- gmouer [gmouer!~gmouer@96-37-49-108.dhcp.gnvl.sc.charter.com] has joined #linuxcnc
[23:04:52] <CaptHindsight> mainly just support for newer hardware
[23:05:00] <Valen> thats usefull
[23:05:10] <Valen> i was just wondering if anything magic happened was all ;->
[23:05:19] <CaptHindsight> that was the main reason for the work, we use new hardware
[23:05:35] -!- stsydow has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
[23:06:20] <CaptHindsight> it's just as fast, we see ~5us on AMD APU's and older PhenomII cpu's
[23:07:15] <CaptHindsight> we just wanted the GPU hardware accel support in the new kernels
[23:07:41] <CaptHindsight> the older 2.6 kernels should work with Ubuntu 12.04
[23:08:21] <draconlord> aah guys little help here
[23:08:47] <draconlord> which of the .deb files installed first ?
[23:08:51] <CaptHindsight> draconlord: with ubuntu I'd always suggest a clean fresh install
[23:09:15] <draconlord> oh poop !
[23:11:16] <CaptHindsight> http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=31248707
[23:12:39] <draconlord> this is so furastrating as i mont willing neither do a fresh install and of course not buying an new machine !
[23:13:28] <CaptHindsight> draconlord: whatis currently installed?
[23:13:29] <andypugh> There are words there I am having trouble guessing.
[23:13:39] -!- adb has quit [Ping timeout: 260 seconds]
[23:14:27] <draconlord> CaptHindsight : my ubuntu 12.04 is already running
[23:15:00] <andypugh> In that case, just get the kernel debs from highlab, and boot into those
[23:15:51] <draconlord> CaptHindsight recomended a fresh install
[23:16:24] <andypugh> it's probably not a bad plan, but may not be necessary if you are already in 12,04
[23:17:01] <CaptHindsight> draconlord: give the debs a try
[23:17:18] <draconlord> waiting for it to download
[23:18:06] <CaptHindsight> seb_kuzminsky: is there anything special required other than just installing the .debs, rebooting and choosing the newer kernel in grub?

[23:27:15] <CaptHindsight> it might be image (non bdg), headers, rtai modules
[23:29:52] <draconlord> whats the use of doc then ? documentation ?

[23:36:51] <draconlord> should i do a grub update to list the new kernel ?
[23:37:05] <CaptHindsight> yes
[23:37:45] <CaptHindsight> shouldn't hurt anything if everything was done correctly
[23:38:39] <draconlord> ok done now rebooting...

[23:44:28] <draconlord> now after the hard part is over (or so i was told ) here comes the easy one getting the git
