Ok, so you have two versions of linuxcnc installed. One is in your ~/linuxcnc-dev directory, checked out from git, that one is version 2.6.something. The other is the deb you installed from the buildbot, that one's 2.5.something. So what you tried to do to get the 2.6 deb from the buildbot didn't work. Did you run "apt-get update" and "apt-get -uV dist-upgrade" after changing your sources.list? You can still run 2.6 from your git dev directory. Source the rip-environment script and run "which linuxcnc" to verify that you're running the executable from your linuxcnc-dev directory, not the one from /usr/bin. When you run linuxcnc and it pops up the config picker window, notice that you have two kinds of configs available, indicated by the two top-level nodes in the tree of configurations. These are "My Configurations" (which is the stuff in $HOME/linuxcnc) and "Sample Configurations" (which is the stuff provided as part of linuxcnc, either the deb or the git checkout). Choose Sample Configurations and look in sim/gscreen. It should be there. -- Sebastian Kuzminsky ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Free Next-Gen Firewall Hardware Offer Buy your Sophos next-gen firewall before the end March 2013 and get the hardware for free!
