I think, maybe, this is a case of a poorly-worded error message that doesn't really say what the problem is. It should say something like "encoder index true at beginning of search for index". What was the exact text of the error message? (I looked back but couldn't find your original message.) If it is as unsuggestive of the real cause as I seem to recall, maybe we need to improve the message.

[Emc-users] Cam Webinar
I'm giving a free CAM webinar tomorrow Wednesday the 21st. You can sign up here: http://tinyurl.com/2abvkua I'll use Rhino, RhinoCam and T-splines to make a part. With videos to show the machining. So if you are not familiar with Rhino/Rhinocam and or T-Splines then this is a quick intro. I promise that it will be paced well. Better than a family slide show 8))) Cheers Rainer -- This SF.net email is sponsored by Sprint What will you do first with EVO, the first 4G phone?

Putting emc on opensuse is by way of interest (it keeps me out the pub and off the streets) as I run opensuse on my desktop pc. The reason for this is historical. I am writing some software in c# running under mono. Unfortunately ubuntu 8.04 did not support the latest monodevelop ide versions (dont know if it does now). However once compiled my program runs under mono on ubuntu 8.04. I had thought to run a later ubuntu version which will support the monodevelop ide but of course that still means rebuilding emc to suit. I bought a refurbished pentium 4 esprimo with 1 gb memory and 80gb hard drive to replace the laptop and will load it up with the standard 8.04 + Emc when it arrives.

x86_64 is obsolete. Since 2.6.24 both 32bit (i386) and 64bit (x86_64) have been merged into x86. You'll have to use the patch from x86.
