Then, campins.hal has this line : net forOnNet genescamviewcfg.hal_checkbutton1 => forOn.in forOff.in I changed genescamviewcfg.hal_checkbutton1 to mycamviewcfg.hal_checkbutton1 which matches the description in togle-caa.ui, but it still doesn't find it. I commented this line out, and then it barfs on the halui.mdi-command-06 etc. lines. So, halui is not exporting these pins. What does all this hal stuff do, anyway? Is this for automatically setting offsets, like a touchoff does? Right now, I'd just be glad to have a picture on the screen! (Which I do not get if I comment all this stuff out and make LinuxCNC able to start up.) Most notably, though, there is NO SIGN of camview anywhere! I assume from campins.hal, that camview is supposed to export some pins, and I don't see it anywhere. That is probably where things are going wrong. Is there another line I need somewhere to make it start camview? What version of LinuxCNC are you running? I just did the default update, and have 2.4.6 on it.
