In order to use the e-puck with Aseba you need to complete several steps: [tested on Ubuntu 9.10 - March 2010]

Download, compile and patch Dashel (v.127) and Aseba (v. 381)

Fast solution:

  • use the script done by Arne (TODO put the path)

Step-by-step solution:

  • DASHEL
    • download Dashel v. 127
    • patch it - (TODO this is necessary because... )
      • cd dashel
      • patch -p0 < dashel_with_fpic_r127.patch
    • compile it
      • cmake .
      • make
    • install it in /usr/local (you can avoid this but then you need to modify the CMakeLists.txt in Aseba)
      • sudo make install
  • ASEBA
    • download Aseba v. 381
    • patch it - (this is necessary in order to make Aseba communicate with the simulator )
      • cd aseba
      • patch -p0 < aseba_complete_r381.patch
    • compile it
      • cmake .
      • make
    • install it in /usr/local
      • sudo make install
    • test if it works
      • cd studio
      • ./studio
    • a window should appear, you are not able to connect now, it's normal

Now you should have Aseba working under your system ready to communicate with the simulator and the real e-pucks
