And I am glad I caught that before that plywood panel ever got within 10 feet of the table saw. Clearly, I have too many hobbies. :) Cheers, Gene Heskett -- There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.

Re: [Emc-users] My experiment with the wheezy based download may be over
Suggestions? Just run the 64 bit stock rt-preempt debian kernel on Wheezy and either build a RIP of the uspace build of LCNC or build MachineKit I have this on all my non-controller machines and it works fine. No need for a simulator build, just do a full build and run sim configs regards -- New Year. New Location. New Benefits. New Data Center in Ashburn, VA.

[Emc-users] My experiment with the wheezy based download may be over.
Greetings; 1. The original kernel claimed to be PAE, wasn't. So I was into swap in 10 minutes. 2. The kmail, 1.13.7 was totally compatible with my email corpus, a huge plus. 3 Just for grins I installed an amd64 kernel, version 3.4-9-amd64. So sweet it ran my sugar up 100 points. The machine has never been this fast or stable! Huge improvement. But not even the sim version of lcnc will run on it, while it purrs happily along on this home brewed 32 bit 3.16.0- PAE kernel. 4. iceweasal may be firefox with all the non-free stuff excised, and it works well at what it does, but doesn't do 90% of the web sites much better than linx did 15 years ago. So I downloaded the latest firefox, putting the tarballs operational directory into ~/gene/bin. Worked fairly well including most video's when launched from the cli, but complained of a missing library which I could only get from a Jessie repo. Installing that, demanded 19 other dependencies too, and when done with that, rescanned and the mark all upgrades must have been aimed at updating it to Jessie, 100 plus new files, and a sizeable pile of removals. Which I might have done except one of the packages it would have also removed was kmail, which I have used for the last 13 years. And no replacement was listed. 5 I went back to the list to post ask for a solution to the corner that the need for one file managed to paint me into, and found that kmails smtp had already been destroyed. Attempts to send were instantly rejected with a bad address report. The address was fine. So I couldn't even ask for help. My background mail sucker, fetchmail and some friends continued to pull in mail at the usual late Friday night rate so nothing wrong with pop3. So here I am, back on the LUCID install and disk, but currently running a PAE 3.16.0 kernel, which FWIW, runs the lcnc sim just fine. I suppose until an upgrade path becomes available. Wheezy might be ok for the milling machine and lathe, but it is NOT a General Purpose, runs everything, install. That is what I need here, and capable of running the simulator. Suggestions? Thank you all. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
