Doug, I'm using pyro 5.0.0 from CVS, downloaded about a week ago, on Ubuntu Edgy. There were some list posts that helped me get pyro set up.
I started up pyrobot just now, and tried the gui joystick. No luck. Then I tried the command line playerjoy, while pyrobot was still running. The playerjoy worked. Then without closing playerjoy, I tried the GUI joystick, and it worked. I tested it a couple times now, and pyrobot doesn't make the robot move (via robot.move or robot.translate) until I load up playerjoy. If I load and then exit playerjoy (or leave playerjoy running), pyrobot will then make the robot move around via move or translate. If I don't start up playerjoy in the command line, pyrobot doesn't make the robot move. Do I need to ensure that something else gets loaded or reset when I initially start up pyrobot?
