Is it in fact capable of presetting the flipflop?
Maybe thats one of several problems in my g0704's camera controls as I
used it as a memory cell to tally whether it was in cutting position or
in camera spot finder position. And its not working 100% of the time.
Just one of several problems I need to sort the rattlesnakes out of
before its 100% usable. The halui stuff supplied to move the machine
with the latest camview (see campy.zip) just doesn't work, (the camview
stuff before didn't either) and I thought it was me. So I wrote my own
position toggle, with a tally pin in pyvcp to tell which position its
in. But thats as far as I got when it all went to hell from a short and
I wound up replacing both the computer and the 5i25. And I've not gotten
back to the camera since.
So I go back out and remove the comments from in front of all the camera
stuffs, and once again linux has thrown gtk under the bus: Here is a
screen capture of that batch of errors (this ran ok 2 months back)
gladevcp: auxiliary dir: /usr/share/linuxcnc/aux_gladevcp/NativeCAM

Do I file this against wheezy, which will never be fixed. or is there a
syntax change I can make to this line in the .ini file:
EMBED_TAB_NAME = Camera
EMBED_TAB_COMMAND = gladevcp -x {XID} camview.glade
That will make it
The camera window, when selected by its tab, is blank white.
Here is that problem, in that camview.glade:
<glade-interface>
<requires lib="gtk+" version="2.24"/>
How can I edit that to make it use any version equal to or newer than
that 2.24?
First, there is not a libgtk+ of any kind in the repos's or installed.
But there is quite a list of stuff with GTK2+ in the descriptions. But
which will preserve its function well enough to work.
FWIW, the camera is working right now with qv4l2 as the viewer. But AIR
if I expand the window, it dies until everything is restarted if it has
to expand the resultant image vertically to keep up with a viewer window
resize.
Sigh...
Thanks all.
