Hi Robert:
Just checking in to see if you have had a chance to look into the
combination of the robotics cape under Ubuntu that we discussed via
email on 11/27/2017? The beaglebone blue worked great under Ubuntu, but
the roboticscape does not. If not, perhaps you can point me in the
right direction on how to fix this.
Wishing you safe and happy holidays!
Best Regards,
-Louis

Dear Robert and Jason:
I am trying to work out the details getting the EduMIP running with ROS
under Ubuntu 16.04 on the Beaglebone Blue and also the Beaglebone Black
wireleess+ Robotics Cape, and hope you may office some pointers. I have the
latest version of roboticscape installed ("sudo apt-get install
roboticscape").
ubuntu@arm:~$ sudo apt-get install roboticscape
[sudo] password for ubuntu:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
roboticscape is already the newest version
(0.3.4-git20170602-0rcnee4~xenial+20171108).
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Here are my 2 quesions:
1. On the Beaglebone Blue under Ubuntu 16.04, when you run a rc_xxx program
it reports the error "ERROR: pru-rproc driver missing", but then runs
normally. Example:
ubuntu@arm:~$ rc_balance
ERROR: pru-rproc driver missing
Inner Loop controller D1:
So far I have been ignoring this message.
Question: any thoughts?
2. On the Beaglebone Black wireless + robotics cape, under Ubuntu 16.04,
when you run rc_xxx program it reports numerous startup errors. Some
programs such as rc_check_battery run normally after printing numerous
errors. Other programs such as rc_balance print a continuous stram of
"ERROR: uart4 must be initialized first" and fail to operate properly,
perhaps due to the stream of "ERROR: uart4 must be initialized first"
messages (see below).
The warning messages for rc_balance begin with this (longer transcript at
the end of this email)
ubuntu@arm:~$ rc_balance
WARNING: RoboticsCape library should only be run on BB Blue, Black, and
Black wireless when the roboticscape device tree is in use.

So I ran Robotics_Cape_Installer/device_tree$ sudo

./configure_robotics_dt.sh
ERROR: This is not Debian Jessie.
Flash the latest Jessie image to your BBB
or use the Wheezy branch of this installer.

Question: Do you have suggestions on how to fix this?
Thanks and Best Regards,
