I am trying to test out my set up. I just installed the gyro according to http://answers.ros.org/question/717/is-an-imu-required-to-run-turtlebot-stack. I want to verify its working correctly but when I run the calibration command
roslaunch turtlebot_calibration calibrate.launch
I am getting error " Still waiting for imu ".
Also, I am still waiting for my kinect, when I run
roslaunch turtlebot_bringup robot.launch
I get "[/openni_camera] No devices connected.... waiting for devices to be connected" also when I run the minimial.launch file I am getting this error as well...
respawning... IOError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/home/ros/.ros/log/a7cc963c-a446-11e0-a0ae-001d72a199a1/turtlebot_node-3.log' [turtlebot_node-3] process has died [pid 28495, exit code 1]. log files: /home/ros/.ros/log/a7cc963c-a446-11e0-a0ae-001d72a199a1/turtlebot_node-3*.log respawning...respawning...
**How can I test my gyro to make sure its working and get turtlebot working without kinect until I have it? Please include location of file to edit. **

eventhough the roslaunch is waiting for the kinect all the other software is still running and you can run robot.launch. It will just print to the screen leeting you know it's not there.
