http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Installing_LinuxCNC#Getting_the_source_with_git But where is says "git checkout v2.5.0_branch" you type "git checkout joints_axes3" Then compile. The default compile options will create a run-in-place system (all located in the linuxcnc-dev folder) which won't interfere with the installed version. This does lead to a potential confusion, in that you may not end up running the version you think you are. You need to open a terminal, type ". ./linuxcnc-dev/scripts/rip-environment" and then "linuxcnc" to use your compiled version. Also be aware that INI file sections have different names, and some pin names are different, and to the existing config won't work (best to copy the whole config folder and then edit the copy as a JA3 version) -- atp If you can't fix it, you don't own it. http://www.ifixit.com/Manifesto ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Precog is a next-generation analytics platform capable of advanced analytics on semi-structured data.
