Sixth para of: http://linuxcnc.org/docs/html/config/pncconf.html which I admit doesn't say "just change the INI file" :-) I'm sure I've seen the "use {step,pnc}conf to get you going then tinker with the generated files" concept in several other places during my brief journey with Linuxcnc. For me as a neophyte, having mucked about with a standard Parallel port setup by changing the INI file, it didn't occur to me to examine the HAL file for velocity type tweakery when I installed the Mesa card. Mea Culpa but I'm sure I won't be the only one (although this faux pas has been avoided in the next release anyway). PS - Chris: I'm not complaining about PnCConf in any way. It's a terrific tool to get one off the ground in what is a sometimes steep learning curve. Many thanks for your efforts. -- Regards, Russell -------------------------------------------------------------------- | Russell Brown | MAIL: russ...@lls.com PHONE: 01780 471800 | | Lady Lodge Systems | WWW Work: http://www.lls.com | | Peterborough, England | WWW Play: http://www.ruffle.me.uk | -------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ October Webinars: Code for Performance Free Intel webinars can help you accelerate application performance.
