My machine is a 4x8 4-stepper gantry router. I built it in '09 around EMC2 2.3.1. I used it for many years in this configuration without upgrading. I set up a new(er) computer using the Debian Wheezy LinuxCNC distro and began using it this month.
With no home or limit switches, I would rehome the machine upon each startup by jogging to the appropriate position (depending on the workpiece)
"Master version"? I dunno... I obtained internet access in my shop this week and I simply asked synaptic to "update all" and among the other upgrades, linuxcnc 2.8.0 was one of them.
I don't know what "world mode" and "joint mode" are.
I have minimal seat time with this new version - I asked this question when I first noted this new behavior upon initial startup after upgrade - the previous version did not remember the last tool location after shutdown so perhaps this will be a non-issue upon subsequent startups.
When I go back to the shop I'll do some more testing to better answer your questions.
Where do I find the master docs? I don't see them in the wiki.
Are there instructions online to downgrade to a previous version if necessary?
