Ugh. If not LinuxCNC, any comparable / alternative Linux CNC controllers that work with USB to build a CNC mill?

Mach3 seems to use USB, so may be an option. Currently only on Windows, but they have announced the intention of a Linux version.

What does the Elefu board do? It seems to incorporate an Atmega, so I am not clear if it needs any external CNC controller.
