Progress report: I copied all the 5i25.*.bit and 5i25.*.xml files from the zip archive I had pulled from Peters site a week ago, into /lib /firmware/hm2/5i25. Then I did the compile and install of the boot.comp, fired up the latest 2.8.0-pre of linuxcnc, did the homing dance without a tool mounted, then mounted the cutoff tool, ran it to the right side of the previously started cutoff and touched z off at 0.000. Measured the OD of the piece in the chuck, did an x touch off to that/2 and ran it till it exited, stopping to sharpen the tool when it got dull from all the chattering due to this things rubber tool post. Had to stop & edit the code to comp for what I was sharpening off the tool 3 or 4 times. Wash. rinse, repeat till the piece fell off. About an hours running time, no crashes. I've read here that there were a few things I would need to update in the configs for the 2.8 upgrade, but these were the configs in effect for 2.6.7 when the drive signed off, and I had to reformat and re-install the newer stuffs. When I shut it down there were a few msgs on the screen I ran it from. Mostly saying it was using a default for so & so that I probably need to add to the .ini or .hal file. They'll still be there when I next turn on the monitor. It appears that a G96 dxxx s100 over-rides the spindle speed as I could not modify it from the axis spindle speed slider. Is this a bug, or intended behavior? It was turning at a steady 200 +- about 10 rpm. In the meantime the shops deck floor is about 14" from done & we found a termite nest in the outside corner. They ignored wasp spray, and I am out of straight 2x6's till the sun dry's them and straightens them by drying the tops faster than the bottoms (I hope anyway). That will give me a chance to yell at Orkin. The house & attached garage is covered & under contract, but none of the other buildings are included. As treated wood goes, its soaking wet, my pin meter said 26% water. Heavy, soggy stuff to handle, Lowes apparently stores the bundle out in the weather till they need it inside to sell. A bit like Johnny in the Rodeo song. :( To recap, nfs is working, ssh -Y is working and its beer thirty. And I left Dee figuring out what we do for din-din.
