How to install Kobuki software in Gumstix?

Hi,

I have set up yocto image in the duovero module and installed ROS, but I cannot find resource to install Kobuki software. Does anyone know how to install or build Kobuki to yocto?

Thanks, Brian

Hi Brian,

On Yocto, you will want to write new bitbake recipes with SRC_URI's pointing to https://github.com/yujinrobot/kobuki and https://github.com/yujinrobot/kobuki_core. And then bake a new gumstix-console-image with these new packages. You may want to refer to generalspoonful's process for guidance (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/24517991/getting-my-own-ros-package-on-gumstix-overo-bitbake-yocto-project).

Alternatively, you may want to try the new Ubuntu image (15.04) available here: https://www.gumstix.com/software/software-downloads/ and try to install ROS, and build the Kobuki packages directly on the Duovero following http://wiki.ros.org/kobuki/Tutorials/Installation
