8 years ago These should be some amount of dmesg output just when the module loads. If that isn't showing up running Mona Lisa gocde is unlikely to do anything. And the issue is not loading the module or it failing to load. I have not rastered anything or upgraded linuxcnc in years. The laser is currently in a bunch of boxes being shipped.
If the module is loading then I would guess it isn't getting any input from the analog pins set by M6?. There should be dmesg output just from all the line start and raster data loading. On Jan 24, 2016 12:07 PM, "sliptonic" notifications@github.com wrote:

I load the Mona_Lisa.ngc example file (unchanged except I set laser power to 80%). It loads without error and when I run it, the gantry sweeps as expected but the laser never fires.
I uncommented the DEBUG lines in laserraster.comp before installing but I see no error output in /var/log/debug.
Is there anything else I can look at to find a clue?
