John, I have it almost working. The tool still tilts, but it will display the ring, and you can see what is happening. From my INI
[DISPLAY] DISPLAY = axis POSITION_OFFSET = RELATIVE POSITION_FEEDBACK = ACTUAL MAX_FEED_OVERRIDE = 2.000000 MAX_SPINDLE_OVERRIDE = 1.500000 MIN_SPINDLE_OVERRIDE = 0.500000 INTRO_GRAPHIC = linuxcnc.gif INTRO_TIME = 5 PROGRAM_PREFIX = /home/sh/linuxcnc/nc_files INCREMENTS = .1in .05in .01in .005in .001in .0005in .0001in POSITION_FEEDBACK = ACTUAL DEFAULT_LINEAR_VELOCITY = 0.250000 MAX_LINEAR_VELOCITY = 1.000000 MIN_LINEAR_VELOCITY = 0.016670 DEFAULT_ANGULAR_VELOCITY = 12.000000 MAX_ANGULAR_VELOCITY = 180.000000 MIN_ANGULAR_VELOCITY = 1.666667 EDITOR = gedit GEOMETRY = aXYZ CYCLE_TIME = 100 Excuse the speeds this is from my prototype system, no machine.

The tool images starts with the flat of the tool cone facing away from me. I can now also see the A change briefly to say 20 and then back to zero, probably due to the G92. But it's still drawing the image as if it's in one spot. Which in effect it is since the rotary axis, in line with the X axis is turning so the XYZ remain the same other than Z moving into the work to cut and out to retract. X moves along the graduations and AX move to draw the letters. So something else in the INI or HAL file is still confusing the system.
