Installing Fuerte on 8.04 (or running Fuerte on a 2.6.24 kernel)
I am having quite a difficult time using ROS with to peices of hardware, specifically the Novint Falcon and a set of Schunk Powercubes.
In order to use the Falcon drivers I must run Ubuntu 10.04 or later. On this system, I am using ROS Fuerte.
On another system that I want to communicate with, I aim to use the Powercubes through ESD's CAN-USB-Mini. The drivers for this device support kernels 2.6.24 and lower, but in order to communicate with my computer connected to the Falcon I must use Fuerte.
Is there any way I can install Fuerte on Ubuntu 8.04?
Can I communicate between Fuerte and Box Turtle?
Will Fuerte run if I am able to downgrade my kernel to 2.6.24
