Hi Friends,

Thank you all for our input. I already have ssh installed and working on the machine but i was being a little snobby with wanting the screen. To the previous point, the machine would NOT run remotely, this was just for me to get all the stepper settings, home, offsets, etc tuned in from my office prior to stepping out there and testing. it was need based solely in convenience. Now its taken so much time i might as well as just sat out at the machine to do these, such is life HAHA.

here is the output i got when i CD to the downloads folder and tried to open the .deb file.

james@CNCPC:~/Downloads$ sudo apt install ./nomachine_8.15.3_1_amd64

[sudo] password for james: Reading package lists...

Done E: Unsupported file ./nomachine_8.15.3_1_amd64 given on commandline

Thanks for all your help this far.

See the output of that command below. It seems like i can’t access that file but i dont quite understand how that could happen.

james@CNCPC:~$ ls -l /home/james/Downloads/nomachine_8.16.1_1_amd64.deb
ls: cannot access ‘/home/james/Downloads/nomachine_8.16.1_1_amd64.deb’: No such file or directory
james@CNCPC:~$

I have only tried the command line workaround and haven’t tried the other you suggested yet but will take a look now. This is just a nice to have on this machine so it hasn’t gotten my full attention but i would still like to get it working.

I’m the LCNC guys and girls could have some input here but I’m still not confident its not a simple issue on my end.

I am getting a similar issue.

I don’t believe its a stock version of debian, it came with linux CNC so im sure there are some nuances. I went to my download folder, copied the path and got the following results

james@CNCPC:~$ sudo dpkg -i /home/james/Downloads/nomachine_8.16.1_1_amd64.deb
dpkg: error: cannot access archive ‘/home/james/Downloads/nomachine_8.16.1_1_amd64.deb’: No such file or directory

Thanks for your reply i will try with CLI.

I tried running the code above but got the following output. Should I have placed the .deb file in a certain location before I run that command?

james@CNCPC:~$ sudo dpkg -i nomachine_8.16.1_1_amd64.deb
[sudo] password for james:
dpkg: error: cannot access archive ‘nomachine_8.16.1_1_amd64.deb’: No such file or directory

Hi,

 

No I didn’t use CLI. i just used the download link and tried using the graphical install method. I downloaded the .deb from the link above (it took a long time to download). Once it finished i clicked the link in the firefox downloads folder and that brought up the package installer gui i clicked ‘install package’ and then the window disappeared and nothing happened.

 

Should I try the command you lists there to install it?
