First steps with LinuxCNC
An introduction to LinuxCNC - we'll select hardware, install the software, and then drive a stepper motor using a parallel port.
Minimal parts list:
- Biostar A68N-2100 motherboard
- Parallel port to IDC cable assembly
- TB6600 driver (generic)
- NEMA 17 stepper motor
- Parallel port cable and breakout
- Bench power supply

This was definitely not what I was searching for about LinuxCNC, but I appreciate that it's quite a nice introduction for beginners
Thank you for the video, I really liked it. There are others on the topic, but I think they are very specific or sometimes they don't say much. With this, I now know what materials I need to start testing LinuxCNC with something connected! Thanks!
Thanks for the very valuable information. Hope to see more videos in near future... :)
Thank you very much for the great content! Hope for more content about LinuxCNC in the future!

Thanks! I have more stuff coming soon, about LinuxCNC and CNC in general
Thanks! First man on youtube who put an actual name of this generic driver in his video on LCNC.
Learning a lot from watching this build. Blinder!
Excellent video, very helpful for me. Thanks a lot.
Thanks, good information.
Interesting video!!
Good job!
Great content, thanks
Merci beaucoup. Thank you so much.
The parport tester is included in the standard LinuxCNC install, in the config-picker look under "apps" in "sample configs" Another thing to check if using a DB25 cable is that not all "printer cables" are fully wired. Many have only enough cores inside to drive (some) printers.
Literally what I satrted from 2 years ago.(Dragons Ahead!-I thought than :)..) I think it is sometimes better to mention why so much is not important and its only example for testing. Great video looking for more ant subscribed ;)
Is it possible to use Trinamic TMC5160 drivers with LinuxCNC? Thanks.
Neeeerrrrrrrrddddddd!
Hi Matt I have been watching your video First Steps with LinuxCNC. I am a complete novice but want to try build a unit. I have located the Biostar A68N-2100 motherboard but I know I will need a power board, hard drive and fans. Would it be possible just to let me know the model numbers you have used in the video. If I use this Motherboard can it be used going forward to build a more complicated CNC? Paul
No mesa controller card?
Sorry for the question, linuxcnc work only with parallel port?

No, it also works with Ethernet cards like the Mesa ones, but they are expensive and rarely in stock. I'm quite new to this, but I've noticed that Mesa cards haven't been available in stock since 2021. If you're new, like I am, consider starting with testing and experimenting with serial communication."

second step, need make linuxcnc working easy double Y axis motor, not good now have basic setting worst not can add 2 Y axis motor, and if add not working newer only lot errors.
