I am using Irobot create with kinect to work like turtlebot; I do not have gyro, so i edited driver.launch to has_gyro=false; after editing i tried turtlebot_bringup again but it did not detect roomba, Roomba was connected and turned on I doublechecked it

the log was

[INFO] [WallTime: 1310523346.309227] has gyro: False
Failed to contact device with error: ['NoneType' object has no attribute 'cal_offset']. Please check that the Create is powered on and that the connector is plugged into the Create.
[turtlebot_node-3] process has finished cleanly.

You found a bug in diagnostics that is making the node crash when has_gyro is false.. I just committed the fix in trunk of turtlebot_node. The bug is in src/turtlebot_node/diagnostics.py line 132 needs to add an if gyro is not None. Check out trunk to get the fixed version
