Did not get me any where I had a look in my directory usr/share/doc and did not find any thing like
/linuxcnc/examples/sample-configs/sim/remap Some how I seem to be missing a directory full of
routines.

Perhaps I should trash this install of 2.6 and start over.

Hi there -

If you're looking for files you know the name of on a linux system the following will help:
sudo updatedb

run this in a shell and your system will update a database of file locations. You can then search for files like so:
locate filename.txt

or
locate something*

for wildcard searches.

Have you considered trying to get the source code and building yourself? If you start out with the Ubuntu 10.04 live cd installation and read the instructions here wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?Instal..._or_8_04_from_source , it's easy to get going.

HTH,
Ed
