Neil,
Can you please run a gcode file that has M3
Do something x y
M5
M2
If you run that and you can see the buttons on Linuxcnc screen change state, but the relay does not, that must have something to do with hardware, not software.
You can also check that by using hal configuration in Linuxcnc and watch the pin that controls the relay.
What hardware are you using, and what config?
Regards,
Tom
