Hi everyone! I decided to try EMC2 software. I run it on Gentoo (kernel 2.6.27-gentoo-r8). I've installed it from CVS yesterday. I've used this instruction: http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/emcinfo.pl?Installing_EMC2#Getting_the_source_with_CVS Then I've made this: $ cd src $ ./configure --enable-run-in-place --enable-simulator $ make And it worked.
But when i was trying to run it for maybe 4th time (no logout meanwhile) I've got this message: ************************************************ $ scripts/emc configs/sim/axis.ini EMC2 - pre-2.3 CVS HEAD Machine configuration directory is '/home/lukas/emc2-trunk/configs/sim' Machine configuration file is 'axis.ini' Starting EMC2...
