Hello, 

I have a PC with a fresh Ubuntu 10.04 install, plus LinuxCNC 2.5.1
installed via the install script. I have a Pico UPC servo controller
attached to the motherboard parallel port. After setting the port to
EPP, the Pico diagnostics run without errors. I loaded the PPMC sample
configuration to LinuxCNC and try to run it, but I get:
http://wallacecompany.com/machine_shop/HNC/pico/pico_error_log-1 

My guess this part:
"...
Debug file information:
Can not find -sec MOT -var MOT -num 1 
Can not find -sec IO -var IO -num 1 
Can not find -sec LINUXCNC -var NML_FILE -num 1 
Can not find -sec EMC -var NML_FILE -num 1 
ppmc_io.hal:52: Pin 'ppmc.0.din.estop.in' does not exist
1774
..."

is due to the ppmc driver not loading due to the real error?

I don't know if this bit indicates anything:
"...

Thank you for any advise.
