Try now, it is available for Wheezy, Jessie, Lucid and Trusty.
Others will be added on request or if I find to add for '_all' distributions

I was able to install and use it within gmoccapy.

Thanks for the tip

The -t or --tab has effect only with axis

Also the macros has been disabled, they can work besides NativeCAM, without giving any trouble. I also added the gmoccapy_postgui.hal file, as that one does link the spindle at speed LED, the feedback bar and it does enable also the tool change dialog.

Please find attached my config folder. I would thank if you do change the sim config to include also the disabled gmoccapy features.

The reason is avoiding confusion by showing only features that are part of NativeCAM

If someone would like to see it with all features supplied with gmoccapy, he could simply run
$ ncam -i path/to/gmoccapy/examples/mill.ini

then
$ linuxcnc path/to/gmoccapy/examples/mill.ini

Hi FernV,

I have 2.7.8 on Debian Wheezy and just got it updated to 2.7.9.

I get this error when I run your setup script:

Installing /etc/apt/sources.list.d/FernV_NativeCAM.list...curl: (7) Failed to connect to packagecloud.io port 443: Network is unreachable

Try to open this page : I think it is not a NativeCAM problem but if it does open, re-run the script.

I managed to successfully install by doing the following:
- manually download config_file.list to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/FernV_NativeCAM.list
- edit ncam_debsetup.txt to skip the part that gets the error

This is what I get when installing nativeCAM

sudo bash ncam_debsetup.txt

The repository is setup! Installing NativeCAM... done.

But where is it and how do I start NativeCAM??
