was the little boxes by it green or with a grey x?
should be green or else you need to install it yet.

how are you starting linuxcnc and pncconf? from the application dropdown menu? is there two entries for each of these?
What I'm getting at is do you have buildbot and the livecd version both on the system? I'm not sure if that is possible but can't hurt to check.

Think I am on to the problem. synaptic shows two colums, the latest version and the installed version. It appears I had the latest version BUT it had not installed for some strange reason.
I think I managed to get it to install, will know soon.

Not sure why the buildbot and such did not install it, but oh well.

Wow, I now have a TB4 TB5 and TB6 showing !!!!!!!

Still no idea why the build downloaded but failed to install the newest vesion. It installed the one a few months old. Nothing I did, it is supposed to be a automated process.

Oh well, we got there anyway. It was just a bumpy road.
