No change. Going into features.glade, I find this at the top of it: gene@coyote:/usr/share/pyshared/gladevcp$ cat features.glade <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <interface> <requires lib="gtk+" version="2.16"/> Which may be all well and good for several years ago, but my libgtk+ is 3.4.2-7, and synaptic has to look in the comments to find gtk+ There is not a "setup" file in the zipped archive I got. Maybe I should nuke this and go pull a new copy? I am going to make that version match and see just how big a crash I get. No diff, it still says it cannot find the features.ui file. > > On 5 January 2016 at 10:49, Sarah Armstrong > <sarahj.armstron...@gmail.com> > > wrote: > > Gene , > > > > In the root of linuxcnc features is setup > > > > If it’s not executable then change it and then ./setup > > > > > > > > The only difference is I dropped the -master > > > > Give me a min or to and i’ll start up the box and let you know > > > > > > > > Sent from Mail <http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=550986> for > > Windows 10 > > > > > > > > > > *From: *Gene Heskett <ghesk...@wdtv.com> > > *Sent: *05 January 2016 10:40 > > *To: *emc-users@lists.sourceforge.net > > *Subject: *Re: [Emc-users] linuxcnc-features-master > > > > On Tuesday 05 January 2016 03:31:58 Sarah Armstrong wrote: > > > it looks like a path problem Gene, > > > > > > it's trying to find the path to features.ui > > > > > > > > > > > > if it runs from the command line , then check the path in your ini > > > > > > ( dont worry i had the same problem ) > > > > If by running from a cd to that directory, which is in the > > > > /home/gene/linuxcnc directory (and I did not remove the -master from > > > > the pathname), then yes, doing a "./features.py --catalog=mill". > > appears > > > > to work as intended although I haven't attempted to actually design > > > > something yet. > > > > > where have you placed linuxcnc-features ? > > > > /home/gene/linuxcnc/linuxcnc-features-master > > > > > > > > Path, in the .ini is: > > > > [DISPLAY] > > > > GLADEVCP = -U --catalog=mill features.ui > > > > FEATURE_PATH = /home/gene/linuxcnc/linuxcnc-features-master > > > > # Name of display program, e.g., xemc > > > > DISPLAY = axis > > > > > > > > And I might have found it, that is supposed to be > > > > FEATURES_PATH above.
