Bob, thank you very much for writing this up. I'm looking forward to
trying it out. I can give you feedback on how it worked for me.
Are you going to publish this online somewhere?

Martin K

[mojalovaa1]

Super Bob
very well explained, thanks a lot, now I was already a little clearer to understand how this is put into a single unit, I tried to run the program in Windows but was always blocked the computer and I could camera to turn it on, I'll try to install Ubuntu

[Jason von Nieda]

Thanks for writing this up Bob. This will make things much easier for our Linux users. 

Would you mind if I included your instructions on the OpenPnP Wiki?

Thanks,

Jason

Hi Jason,

Martin K is going to try it out and report any issues.

Please feel free to take my write-up and his comments and publish onto the wiki.

I will make the GRBL modification notes a better quality.

Br,

Bob.

[Martin K]

Note of reference is that I'm using a TinyG and not a grbl, I believe it
will basically be the same because it's just sending G-code to a serial
port, yes? (once the TinyG is setup)

Thanks,
Martin

[Bob Beattie]

The setup procedure to get OpenPnP running will be the same whether you use GRBL or TinyG.

Br,

Bob.

[mojalovaa1]

Bob , can I use Debian for open pnp?

[Bob Beattie]

Yes, you should be able to use Debian instead of Ubuntu, as Ubuntu is a derivative.

There is a slight difference in how the two OS handle the SuperUser account, but all should be just the same.

....which reminds me, I still have to write up the process of compiling and programming the GRBL code into an Arduino Mega2560 board.

[mojalovaa1]

After 3 day I m install ubuntu 14.04 but not work correct , he is very very slow  , ca you help me or I need install older version like 10.04.

comp is : 3.6 GHz , 1.25 Giga. ram , 2 hdd , one is 160 and second for ubuntu is 20 Giga.

[Cri S]

For lubuntu I can share one script for installing it.

[mojalovaa1]

I m install lubuntu , vauuuu very good work  , thanks.
I have some very old comp with I use for mach 3 , it is 1.6GHz , 1 GiB ram ,  who  linuks I ca use for may pnp machine on that comp

[mojalovaa1]

I not have rxtx java on my linux , where I can download an how install

[Cri S]

Step 35 to 41 from bobs list.

[Cri S]

As I remember I'm using something like this:
sudo apt-get install librxtx-java
It need symlinking the lib to the java lib dir.

[Cri S]

As soon I'm home, 3-4 hours, I can post the script. It works running from USB stick too.

[mojalovaa1]

Can you give me direct link for download Java JDK7 , I think that is problem in Java

[mojalovaa1]

for webcam, launch guvcview and check if webcam works.
Othwerwise use lsusb to check if the webcam is listed.
Eventually disconnect usb, attach usb and after that launch dmesg .
Post the last lines starting with usb, the lines that are written after plugging in the usb connector.
Maybe you need adding insmod command or driver for you'r particular webcam.
Remember to tell us what type of camera you have.

[mojalovaa1]

Camera work correct on my comp. but when start open pnp not work , if I click on camera spec. or some of parameters of the camera than open pnp  shut down , an on the terminal have this :

[Cri S]

The problem is that on machine config XML (probably) you try tu use the configuration for windows dll instead of using the linux so file. Can you post the congig file.

[mojalovaa1]

Yes , now work ok , I had to unplug the camera and re-connect .

Thanks for help .

Can I find some manual for use openpnp software?

[Bob Beattie]

Hi Mojo,

I've just caught up with all the posts.

Since you have a working Lubuntu setup, can you create a list of steps to go from a new install to a working OpenPnP ?

Then we will have steps for both Ubuntu & Lubuntu.

Bob.

[mojalovaa1]

Yes Bob , I can , but first must  make new lubuntu system because something not work correct .
Maybe I will tomorrow  do that .

[mojalovaa1]

Can you help me , you are write this : # used /usr/lib instead of /usr/java/packages/lib/i386 for platform portability
I not have that folder , I have this : /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu  , or this : /usr/lib/jvm/java-7-oracle/lib/i386 , can you say me how I need make  that ?

[Cri S]

Than you seems to have a different lubuntu.
post the output of this:
uname -a

mine is this:
Linux av-1005HA 3.13.0-36-generic #63-Ubuntu SMP Wed Sep 3 21:30:45 UTC 2014 i686 i686 i686 GNU/Linux

download the attached file and execute
java GetSystemProperty java.library.path

mine output was
/usr/java/packages/lib/i386:/lib:/usr/lib

|This mean that java search native libs inside
/usr/java/packages/lib/i386
or
/lib
or
/usr/lib

Choose one solutuion from the output without using /lib .
Link the 2.2 libs too, i don`t remember if i have omitted it in the list above.
Using ln instead of cp has the advantage that automatic system upgrade works transparently.
The default installation for librxtx-java is /usr/lib/jni

just to be sure, include the output of
java -version
and 
javac -version

in the reply.

If executing

If you get the jni lib then no on or cp is to do.
Do you have used the instruction from Bob?

[mojalovaa1]

No I m use  yours instruction  , when I m come to step 7 than say  script "used" not correct  .
I have this folder :

[Cri S]

OK I have realized what you error is.
The # is the comment delimiter.
It is possible that you have omitted it or not using the bash shell because having used sudo sh.
Otherwise substitute the hash with echo.

[mojalovaa1]

Okay, I'll go once more to see whether they will go

[mojalovaa1]

what do you suggest as a solution to the problem

[mojalovaa1]

Bob , can you write how I can install software on arduino 2560 and make setup for run  pnp?

[Martin K]

Bob,
This was months ago, but for many excuses I was unable to try this out
until recently.
I started at about step 9 because I'm not new to linux. My issue in
taking forever to get back to you was that the Ubuntu installer wouldn't
work with my high resolution monitor. I couldn't read the garbled text
and Ubuntu no longer has a text mode installer. But the latest version
of Ubuntu seems to have fixed this problem.

I'll add some comments inline:

It appears that they don't call this the "JDK" anymore.

I think you have a typo in line 28-29
Do you want to do this?
PATH=$PATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin
export PATH
export JAVA_HOME
?

I can't find rxtxlib-java for any version of Ubuntu. Do you know where I
can find it?

- this is as far as I got -

Thanks for writing out your instructions.

Martin

[Cri S]

You don't need RxTx for OpenPnP anymore.

For running, the only dependency is opencv and jre .

For developing, more install steps are needed.

just to mention, RXTX is named librxtx-java and it can be installed with regular apt-get, but it needs symlink

to java dir, as already mentioned above.

[bob_gmail]

Hi Martin,

Thanks for following the instructions and making comments.
May I ask exactly which version of Ubuntu you're using, whether it's 32/64 bit and which
locale you're set to (UK, Germany, US ?).

Cheers,
Bob.

[Genie Kobayashi]

Hi guys!

Because the current code requires Java 8, I've tried to install Oracle JDK8 to Ubuntu 15.10 (standard and MATE) according to the following page and got success to run. It's basically similar to the way Cri S introduced on this thread previously. Thanks to Bob Beattie and Cri S!

  http://www.webupd8.org/2012/09/install-oracle-java-8-in-ubuntu-via-ppa.html

For the latest Debian 8 system, you can follow as below.

  http://www.webupd8.org/2014/03/how-to-install-oracle-java-8-in-debian.html

You don't need to install RXTX lib as it's included with JDK8, and now ready to run GUI using OpenPnP bat file.

Btw, if you wish to install maven, please read the article below.

  http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15630055/how-to-install-maven-3-on-ubuntu-15-10-15-04-14-10-14-04-lts-13-10-13-04-12-10-1

Now, I'm really appreciated with tireless Jason's efforts in recent years.

Cheers!

Genie

[Cri S]

I have seen, that if updates from oracle java7 to java8 it can happen that environment variable was not updated on someones computer linking to java7 core libs,

and that have create strange positions errors.

after update check ENV if there is any relict from java7 and if it's replace it to java8 adding the export <VAR>=<VALUE> line to .bashrc file

[Cri S]

This is for updating from oracle7 to oracle8, not new installation.
