Thanks much, Gene!  OK, so apparently you also need to
activate the campins.hal file in the ini file, and also 
start up halui.

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.

Thanks,

Jon
