good,
Friends think something's wrong with the master. reinstall ubuntu. and the problem persists.
the only thing I did was this:
Install ubuntu
install the master linuxcnc-dev
modify the files to apply the patch tool fanuc style change
when I try to compile is the same problem I tried with all the options given to me without good result.
any idea what may be happening.
thanks

Hello Jorge
How have you made out with your build problem?

You may need some or all of the packages in that list I gave.
The default Ubuntu installation does not include all the packages you need to compile software.
You definitely will need to sudo apt-get install build-essential linuxcnc-dev
The latter is a package of tools, not the same thing as getting the source for master.

Rick, Andy.
download again ubuntu. of linuxcnc.org and install things, also install all recommended and this time it works thank God.
I have the following details,
tool change command (t0n0n). with copying pyVCP bigJohnT
machine makes perfect change
linuxcnc stuck for a few seconds after making the tool change
which indicates that tool is in use, you delay indicate the tool change.
I'm afraid that running a program does not assimilate the tool number and the tool crashes.
RICK you feel the same?
I also wanted to ask you how you go with the GScreen (Cmorley), you worked perfect? it is true what he says with the tool table, when closed you can not re-open, and wear is the radio.
Another thing how do I run a program from a specific line?
if you just want to run finish, or it can not?
thanks.

I know how to do it in Axis, I am not sure how you do it in other interfaces. Just be aware that if you are doing this, you need to manually start the spindle, coolant, select the correct tool etc. Run-from-line does exactly that, it starts to run the G-code as if the selected line was the beginning of the G-code file.

If you are saying what I think you are saying, then LinuxCNC won't move an axis until tool-changed is set to true.linuxcnc stuck for a few seconds after making the tool change

Hello Jorge,
It is true that when using the AXIS display that after loading a program you cannot open the tool table editor, it is a bug in Linux from what I was told, our operators have gotten into the habit of as soon as they open Linux they open the tool table and minimize it to the bottom toolbar. In Gscreen, the tool table is built in to a tab on the display, so you don't have to worry about it if using the Gscreen interface.
As for the actual toolchanger issue, after the machine changes tools, does it say what tool is loaded at the bottom of the Axis display, and if it does is it the correct tool, or does it still say "No Tool"?
Are you using the tool turret logic from my ladder program of did you write your own?
As for "run at line' Andy is correct, it runs from the line selected. Our post processor that we use shop wide for writing our nc programs automatically puts in spindle info, coolant, and tool info required, and all of that is always pre-ceeded by a M01 for the optional stop. We have found that we need to select that line with the M01 so linux will recognize all the info in the next line regarding the tool, spindle speed and rotation, coolant, constant suface info, and so on.
I can post an example of one of our nc programs tomorrow, to show how we do it and have been succesful so far.
Thanks
Rick

This is most definitely not the case in a normal 2.5.2 installation. Is this possibly a problem with the lathe-style patch? (Though I can't really see how it could be)

Andy, I will have to look but I. Am sure I was told a while back that there was a glitch and you couldn't open after loading a program. I will look to see who it was. Would that maybe of been the case with 2.5.1?

This is johns qoute from earlier in this thread. I thought he said it was something in AXIS. My bad, but I do know that on our other build that is still using axis ( not for long though) will not bring up the tool table after loading an NC program.
Sorry about that guys,
Rick

That seems to be an issue with the faunc style tool patch. Have you notified the author of the patch of the issue?
