When running from inside the emc script, the environment variable
INI_FILE_NAME holds the inifile, and the environment variable NMLFILE
holds the nmlfile.
AXIS generally passes a "-ini" flag to subprograms that benefit from it,
like debuglevel.

It looks like you're missing some python-related packages, namely the
one that provides pyconfig.h and the one that provides _tkinter.so.
On my Debian Jessie system the relevant packages seem to be
libpython2.7-dev: /usr/include/python2.7/pyconfig.h
python-tk: /usr/lib/python2.7/lib-dynloa

The "waitpid" error is a very generic error that indicates some
sub-program has failed. So look for other messages that give a more
specific indication of the problem.
Here is a loadrt line I used when I was testing 3 hostmot2 ethernet
boards:
loadrt hm2_eth config="num_encoders=1 num_pwmgen

A version of this program is in the sample nc_files as "daisy.ngc".
It needs to be modified to run on a 3-axis machine, and only "sounds
good" on a high-

Can you please say what version of LinuxCNC you are running, and provide
a complete program which illustrates the problem, rather than just a
snippet? Please also use G41.1 D- instead of G41 so that the program
does not depend on the details of your tool table, or provide the
relevant tool table l
For the following testing, I used the 2.7 branch at ref
v2.7.1-26-g21ae480 (26 commits past the most recent release, 2.7.1)
I tested backlash compensation by modifying configs/sim/axis/axis.ini to
add backlash to the X axis:
[AXIS_0]

+BACKLASH = 0.100

use a special comment recognized by AXIS (and by other programs sharing
the same library for preview plot generation) to terminate the
generation of the preview at any point you choose.

You need to look for the properly named package:
