Any key has to be pressed twice to have any effect. To do the above I need to press F1 F1 F2 F2 press right arrow nothing happens, release and repress right arrow and it then jogs. It's not picking up the first press of the keyboard. I have three input devices, a wireless keyboard, a touch screen and the USB pendant (keyboard). Since those changes it's not picking up the first press on the USB device. >> >Use a different name for your modified version of hal_manualtoolchange. >> >Except for "configuration files", dpkg always overwrites all package >> >files when installing upgrades, so we have no freedom to change this >> >behavior while using debian packaging for emc2. >> >> Is it referenced anywhere else but in the .hal file? > >The only references are in the hal file. Tried renaming the references in the hal file and Axis does not load. It starts, but fails to load the GUI screen. Loads the splash screen then hangs with no error.
