Core Libraries
Get the core phidgets libraries from www.phidgets.com drivers.
Note: using Synaptic to get the phidgets drivers will not give you the correct version.
- I got libphidget-2.1.8.20120503
- untar
- cd libphidget-2.1.8.20120503
- ./configure
- make
- sudo make install
sound_play
As root or using sudo
- add the following to the end of /opt/ros/electric/ros/rosdep.yaml
python-pygame: ubuntu: python-pygame
- svn co https://code.ros.org/svn/ros-pkg/stacks/sound_drivers/tags/latest/sound_play/
- cd sound_play
In the following steps it complained about festival missing - but it is there. I wonder if the following step is not necessary for ROS phidgets to install in the following section.
- With Synaptic get festival
- rosmake --rosdep-install sound_play
ROS Phidgets
Be sure to quit Synaptic. It will lock the repository so that the dependencies cannot be loaded below.
- Download file: phidgets-ros-pkg-1.40.tar.gz
As root
- untar in /opt/ros/electric/stacks/phidgets
- rosmake --rosdep-install phidgets
