Thanks for you answer Stuart! I generate my G-code with a generic fanuc 5 axis
post proccesor and it doesn't compensate the tool lenght or the B axis pivot
point, so i need to incorporate the kinematics in the machine control. I'm not
that good with linux and i do not know how to do all this things. I was looking
into linuxcnc machine examples and one machine from vismach it's almost same
configuration like mine! do you think that will work for me? Alex
