Ok, I've done this as user gene, after making the whole tree mine, from 
the cvs up -rTESTING to the scripts/emc stage, even logging out of X 
and logging in as gene & restarting x.  I get this:
--------------

I'd get on irc from out there, but that part of mozilla refuses to 
install due to mplayer dependencies, and for some reason when I tried 
to install IRC-II, it downloaded zero bytes.  So theres not an irc 
agent on that box that I know of.

And an sudo scripts/emc is greeted by even nastier refusals.

I also had to install bwidget.

Ok, should I just blow that tree away after saving the stepper_inch.ini 
I've been useing and just start from scratch?

I'm on it I think, I'll add that address to the post.
