Posted earlier.

git branch is master-gtk3, but there isn't a master-gkk3 reference, so I 
have to first checkout master, do the pull, and then switch back to 
master-gtk3.

Thanks Andy.

Re: [Emc-users] OT: About a chat here on vacuum table ideas

2021-06-07 Thread Todd Zuercher
It might work, but you may have trouble with the pellet sticking in the seat 
and not opening when you need it to, or worse yet if your part doen't quite 
seal good enough to the table, sucking shut and losing all holding power.

What I've seen more commonly used is a spring loaded valve where a spring 
pushes the pellet(ball) up to seal the vacuum port.  When no part is in place 
the spring pushes the ball up to seal the vacuum port, and the ball sticks up a 
bit above the part sealing surface.  When the part is placed on top, it pushes 
the ball down opening the valve and allowing the vacuum to flow.

I meant to say:

When there is a part over that hole and before the pump is on, the pellet will 
be resting on the groove. As soon as the pump is on the vacuum will be 
immediately sealed by the part, not allowing the suction to suck the pellet

Well, in my efforts to find it, I probably fubared it.
I finally ended up installing both python-opencv and python-3-opencv, the 
even ran sudo python XamPY_setup.py again.

Now I get more verbosity but the same emd result:
===
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/gladevcp", line 50, in

  File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/gladevcp/hal_pythonplugin.py", 
line 1, in

===

So since I knew the cameera works with cheese on another identical 
machine, I installed cheese on this one which pulled in around 50 other 
dependencies, And it works with cheese.

Looks the same to me. ???

And linuxcnc -l runs.
Both python and python3 versions of opencv are installed, is this bad? Or 
should we fix the pythob-3 error somehow since python-2 is going away 
shortly? As in no more in bullseye.

This seems to be a really good camera, and I'd love to be able to use it 
with linuxcnc. Good definition, full color, spindle mounted, parallax & 
focus adjustable.

The first place I would look would be in camview.py

But I have no idea where you got your camview from?

But I was getting msgs from my isp that the message was delayed.

Delivery Status Notification (Delay)
 From: Postmaster

This is an automatically generated Delivery Status Notification.

THIS IS A WARNING MESSAGE ONLY.

YOU DO NOT NEED TO RESEND YOUR MESSAGE.

Delivery to the following recipients has been delayed.

Which I took to mean the listserver at sourceforge was there, but wasn't 
accepting msgs.  They were, in the first case, over 24 hours before I 
got the echo back from sourceforge. I normally get it back on the next 
fetchmail scan, at 2 minute intervals, or less since my setup treats 
outgooing and incoming as separate functions.  No synch between them.

Can you narrow it down to python-2 or python-3, 3.7 TBE for a buster 
based install on wintel hdwe?  Or does apt have a utility to find it?

Thanks Andy.

Can you start LinuxCNC from the command line and paste the output here?

It's in one of the Python files, either in the GladeVCP base code or
in a handler file.

Here is the single error line:

 GLADE VCP ERROR:With xml file: camview.glade : 'gi.repository.Gtk' 
object has no attribute 'glade'

camview.glade was posted a couple msgs back. As can be seen here, I
tried renaming the interface, but that made even more errors. Here it
is again:




  
  
  
  
  
False

  
True
0
#
640
480
150
5
10
False

  

  




But I have no clue where gi.repository.Gtk is or where it fits into this 
from the .ini file in the display section:

EMBED_TAB_NAME = Camera
EMBED_TAB_COMMAND = gladevcp -x {XID} camview.glade

gene@sixty40:~$ cd linuxcnc/configs/6040-5i25-7i76-rs485/
gene@sixty40:~/linuxcnc/configs/6040-5i25-7i76-rs485$ less 
6040-5i25-7i76-rs485.ini
gene@sixty40:~/linuxcnc/configs/6040-5i25-7i76-rs485$ locate gi.repository.Gtk
gene@sixty40:~/linuxcnc/configs/6040-5i25-7i76-rs485$ sudo updatedb
[sudo] password for gene:
gene@sixty40:~/linuxcnc/configs/6040-5i25-7i76-rs485$ locate gi.repository.Gtk
gene@sixty40:~/linuxcnc/configs/6040-5i25-7i76-rs485$ 

So gi.repository.Gtk does not exist on that system.  Why?

Thanks Andy.
