Revision history [back]

As the error message says, the rviz config for doing that validation is out of date, and there doesn't appear to be an updated version available.

As an alternative, you can run and set up rviz manually:

run rviz with the rviz command
set the "Fixed Frame" to "/laser"
add a "LaserScan" Display
set the topic name to "/scan" in the LaserScan display.
