Re: [Playerstage-users] Problem sick lms 200 - ubuntu 8.04

[V. C. <ko...@gm...>]

Hello,
sorry for the delay in responding to your message...

On Ubuntu 7.0.4 we are using player 2.0.5 and it works just fine... And in
Ubuntu 7.10 and 8.04 we tried using player 2.0.4, 2.0.5, 2.1.1, 2.2.0 and
none of them worked...

we got the following messages from player 2.0.4, 2.1.1 and 2.2.0 running
player using -d9:

We were using the following cfg file:

driver (
    name "sicklms200"
    provides ["laser:0"]
    port "/dev/ttyUSB0"
    connect_rate 9600
    transfer_rate 9600
    delay 45
    retry 100
    alwayson 1
)

thanks in advance and sorry for the long e-mail,
