Custom Gui tutorial Issue

Hi all,
I'm just installed linuxcnc from debian.hybrid.iso
And now I'm tryng to follow
gnipsel.com/linuxcnc/gui/gui01a.html

But when i put "VCP Toggle ESTOP action" on windos (Point 8 of tutorial) the glade environnement close itself.
Someone know why?
Thanks

You are obviously a glutton for punishment, first kernel building, now glade

First thing, Debian 7 uses glade3, based on gtk3. This is not compatible with gladevcp which needs glade 2.

You need to remove glade3, add the lines to /etc/apt/sources.list to pull from the Squeeze repos and fetch glade2 from there.

Only then will anything to do with gladevcp work

regards

Ehm...yes
I'm working hard to learn everything.
(And After that custom player i have i harder question, a miling machine with two Z axes. But i keep it for later. )
I think i have solved the problem. Or just find a workaround.
On the VCP Action just right click and click "add wigest as top level".
Than you can use it,
Thanks ArcEye

The man who wrote the tutorials, JT, is the one to ask about gladevcp specifics.

I just know that it will not even run on gtk3 and you have to downgrade, because I had to do it to run an example a while back

I'm actually use glade 2.
