Just delete the "loadrt probe_parport" from your HAL file.

Thank you all so much!

It worked just removing "loadrt probe_parport" as described!

Now i just need to learn the LinuxCNC program to start using the lathe.

Thanks for doing all of this work for the Emco lathe, I found one buried and not functioning at my school and revived it. Works awesome!!





Cheers
