For that, camview works well albeit slow. I'll go plug one into tne toy mill which is still configured for the just barely working teeny one I started with, BRB.
Humm, I uncommented the lines in the .ini file that did make it work, without unplugging the damaged camera that was still making normal video of the stuff on the table behind the keyboard, but something in the system is now killing it and linuxcnc won't start. Perhaps its time to go get the latest from Nic's .ru site? There's probably been a gigabyte of updates to both LCNC and the system since I last had it running. The web page download is however 3 years old, so maybe not. Maybe Nic doesn't its died? And I am likely a good 90-120 days with the next project here before I can come back to this. There is about $1000 worth of Mahogany in the way in the garage right now that needs to be carved up & made into 3 more cedar lined blanket chests.
