Greetings; I have previously played with gcode on this machine by running linuxcnc and selecting the axis.ini.
But just now it threw up the initial splash bar with version number, then virtually locked the machine up, as if the base thread was perhaps set to 15 microseconds. I waited a couple of minutes and it did eventually throw up the little temporary advisory window at the lower right of the screen, but that was drawn very slowly, and was removed a minute later just as slowly. I was able after several minutes, to get to the htop screen and apply a kill -9 to several pieces of it that I could find, and the machine feels about normal again. >From here, it appears something may have gone south in the sim mode. At no point did any of the 4 cores in this phenom equipt machine, show any higher than normal activity in the gkrellm display of each core individually. FWIW, latency-test runs normally. Displayed values aren't quite as good as a D525MW board shows, but it would run fine at a base-thread of 30 microseconds if there was real hardware on the parport. There is nothing on it now. Linuxcnc is kept up to date by the package-manager, so its not more than 2 or 3 days old right now. Ideas?
