I don't think that will solve anything.

you also need to edit 5axisbridgegui.py (see below)

5axisgui.py (the initial version), identifies itself as a HAL component
called '5axisgui'. When the .hal file tries to loadusr the
'5axisbridgegui' it actually waits for a component called
5axisbridgegui, not 5axisgui, and thus fails.
You need to edit 5axisbridgegui.py and change
c = hal.component("5axisgui")
to
c = hal.component("5axisbridgegui")
or alternatively you can add a param to loadusr (-w or -W with a name),
check the manpage for details.. it eludes my memory atm.
