Hello.

I am trying to get the Prosilica GigE camera to work with Ubuntu 14.04. I have installed ROS-indigo from the following: http://wiki.ros.org/indigo/Installati...

I have installed the Camera using the following tutorial as well: http://wiki.ros.org/prosilica_camera/...

The tutorial starts to fail when I try to compile the driver. The prosilica_camera source isn't found. I bipassed this by installing using apt: apt-get install ros-indigo-prosilica_camera (ditto for prosilica_gige_sdk).

I set the ip address of the camera as the tutorial says, but I am not able to run the prosilica_gige_sdk executables, as they don't seem to be included in the package any longer (see the following:) http://answers.ros.org/question/21018... , https://github.com/ros-drivers/prosil...

As advised, I tried to follow the rest of the tutorial, however nothing that I do will make the computer see the camera! I have two NICs attached, with the internet connected on eth0, and the camera on eth2. What am I doing wrong?!?
