Revision history [back]

If you go to the roomba_500_series webpage you'll notice under dependencies that you also need cereal_port, meaning you'll need to download both roomba_robot and lse_communication stacks.

http://www.ros.org/wiki/lse_communication

You can do that using svn as suggested earlier into a folder on your ROS_PACKAGE_PATH, do not download them into your ROS installation stacks folder!!! Take a look at this tutorial I wrote on how to install the software for a Roomba netbook. You can edit the rosinstall file there to meet your requirements. It was created for our lab Roombas so your probably don't need some of the stacks there.

Hope this helps!
