It's the MachineKit branch, which is a snapshot of UBC3 that I have verified actually works. The branch doesn't get updated often (generally, only when I'm making new images), so if you want to track development, you should use UBC3, typically from Michael Haberler's github repository. > I also have a few questions regarding Machinekit: > 1.

I'm a command-line guy, and the fact that the GUI comes up at all on the BeagleBone is mostly a testament to the Debian developers and the LinuxCNC crew. :) > 3.

If it makes you feel any better, I didn't install vim by default and curse the system every time I start with a new image, go to edit a file, and find half the key commands I'm used to don't do the right thing! I have mostly tried to make the pre-built image the minimal required to actually get LinuxCNC running, but yes, a text editor would be a good addition. I'm open to suggestions for a light-weight editor, or I could just confuse all the new users and install gvim! :) -- Charles Steinkuehler char...@steinkuehler.net
