I tried upgrading from 2.7.4 to 2.7.7 (debian wheezy, apt-get) but when I fire linuxcnc up I get a popup error message:
>G-Code error in axis.ngc > >Near line 12 of /usr/share/axis/images/axis.ngc: >Bad character 'z' used If I click 'OK' linuxcnc loads but the initial X & Y show as 4.23e+289 and 2.95e+240 and axis.ngc is not showing in the display. I then tried 2.7.5 and get the same thing. Downgrade to 2.7.4 and everything's back to normal. axis.ngc sums as 16239 (same as my backups) so I don't think it's that. A possible contributor to the problem is that I tried installing NativeCAM but ran into problems as I already use gladevcp for a probe screen (I'll go back to that once 2.7.7 is working). I ran "setup.py c" clear NativeCAM for now. Any ideas?
