Gmoccapy scaling up each time you exit tool table - 2.9.8 trixie was created by RotarySMP
Hi Guys,
I updated my lathe to 2.9.8 on Trixie with RTAI. Now Gmoccapy appears to have a bug causing it to scale up each time you exit the tool table or the max preview. window size setting also doesn't work correctly, as the screen reduces in height when commanded to increase in either width or height.
I made a video to show the behavior.
Like this, the lathe is nearly unusable, as I have to keep shutting down and restarting LinuxCNC to reset it. Any suggestions how to correct this greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Mark

I read that and thought "RTAI, resolution issues....", but nooo, you had to find something i have never seen, and it irrevocably seems a GmoccaPy issue.I updated my lathe to 2.9.8 on Trixie with RTAI.

Yeah, you warned me.
After I tried to update 2.8.2 I screwed something up, and decided I may as well then pull the SSD and do a clean install.
If this is not easily fixible, I guess I could do a clean install of 2.8. and wheezy.

RTAI? isn't your lathe using a Mesa card?
Why RTAI?
Why RTAI?
