Migration from Debian 6.0 to Ubuntu 14.04 on TEO

ToDo:

• Try hc-driver-4.9 on TEO Try hc-driver-4.9 on TEO #26
• jr3 drivers with Ubuntu 14.04
• Try xsense (see Add info for installing Xsens inertial sensor yarp device installation-guides#35 )
• Install daemontools as described here
• Change boot order: make Ubuntu default.
• Documentation
  • Create GitHub releases, before erasing all Debian 6.0 documentation.
  • update this table using the agreed format (csv) -> Update: here

Jr3 on Ubuntu still has issues...

On Debian lsmod we have:

jr3pci_driver          23698  0 
jr3_pci                 6086  0 
comedi                 24352  1 jr3_pci

And jr3:

[info] DeviceDriverImpl.cpp:35 open(): Full scales of Sensor 0 are 317 314 845 221 219 307
[info] DeviceDriverImpl.cpp:37 open(): Full scales of Sensor 1 are: 326 325 870 224 224 309
[info] DeviceDriverImpl.cpp:39 open(): Full scales of Sensor 2 are: 0 0 0 0 0 0
[info] DeviceDriverImpl.cpp:41 open(): Full scales of Sensor 3 are: 0 0 0 0 0 0

Using roboticslab-uc3m/jr3pci-linux@4d86697 (current develop)

• No longer blocked by https://github.com/roboticslab-uc3m/LoliRepo/issues/1.
• WIP at Add info for installing Xsens inertial sensor yarp device installation-guides#35

[jgvictores]

• Add info for installing Xsens inertial sensor yarp device installation-guides#35 closed.

[jgvictores]

• JR3 working on Ubuntu 14.04 and documented at https://github.com/roboticslab-uc3m/installation-guides/blob/master/install-jr3.md
• XSENS working on Ubuntu 14.04 and documented at https://github.com/roboticslab-uc3m/installation-guides/blob/master/install-xsens.md

Updated links to these docs on https://github.com/roboticslab-uc3m/teo-software-manual/blob/fb1c7b73235bfacab411b4fe9d344b2be2d0c4e5/appendix/b-teo-network-information.md

Install daemontools as described here

The YARP_CONF variable is deprecated and it is no longer used. Please check the documentation for yarp::os::ResourceFinder::getConfigHome() warning: YARP name server(s) not configured, ports will be anonymous warning: check your namespace and settings with 'yarp detect'

[rsantos88]

From here we see YARP_CONF is deprecated, and from the called ResourceFinder::getConfigHome(), and from its documentation we can see that YARP_CONFIG_HOME is now used instead.

Tested and working! 🎉🎉🎉

Starting documentation!
Shoud create GitHub releases, before erasing all Debian 6.0 documentation, at least on https://github.com/roboticslab-uc3m/yarp-devices

Created https://github.com/roboticslab-uc3m/yarp-devices/releases/tag/old-debian-6.0

update this table using the agreed format (csv)

Here it is: https://github.com/roboticslab-uc3m/teo-main/blob/issue%2332/doc/os-requirements.csv

Do you want to convert this table to .cvs too, don't you?

[jgvictores]

In fact most work done at https://github.com/David-Estevez/yarp-devices/tree/fix-161-migrate-tables, check issue roboticslab-uc3m/yarp-devices#161.
The basic idea is to conclude roboticslab-uc3m/yarp-devices#161 but taking into account that all Debian 6.0 information can be removed.

[jgvictores]

Also careful with roboticslab-uc3m/yarp-devices@98ec0ef (fix-165-find-phidget)

[jgvictores]

Added "Change boot order: make Ubuntu default." to description.

Added "Change boot order: make Ubuntu default." to description.

Done in both computers. Now you can see the next screen when grub starts, ease to recognize:
(Default time to choose: 5s)

Great. Basically missing merge of the branches that involve this file.

Finished documentation, which was final step, at roboticslab-uc3m/yarp-devices@ffce5d9.
