thanks. everything is coming together nicely now.  much thanks to all the
people who worked on getting this linuxcnc build put together.
I do have a couple more questions about my implementation.
my x axis will be using 2 independent steppers.  and these 2 motors will
have independent homing sensors in order to square up the gantry on the
table.
does anyone have a script written for homing in this scenario?
I'm guessing a stand along python script is probably the best candidate for
this? or is there a function in linuxcnc that might be useful for this?
also, is it possible to load the same x11 instance of an application on
more than one computer? I am interested in being able to have a linux
tablet in the garage next to the table for controlling but also be able to
monitor a machine run from inside the house on my computer.
thanks.
