I _think_ its running but I will add that debug level to the config file 
the next time I boot it.  I need to get the motor controllers & power 
supplies assembled next.  This box will be running a cnc'd lathe when its 
all assembled.

I can understand that reticence.  I was out in the garage a bit ago, 
updated that machine & then shut it off, intending to get some beauty 
sleep.  Alas, I've fooled around and failed, not that it would do me much 
good with all the calendars I've thrown away. ;-)

Thanks Glynn.

Cheers, Gene
