Hello,

Just got a strange problem yesterday when trying to launch Gazebo and PR2 to test a new stack. The symptoms look quite frequent but the causes appears to be various, so I'm opening a new thread for that.

Under ROS Fuerte and Ubuntu 10.04, I roslaunch emptyworld environment with emptyworld.launch. Everything looks right at this time. Then, I try to spawn the PR2 through "pr2.launch" file. The PR2 visually appears, but at some point, Gazebo crashes and PR2 node (defaultcontrollersspawner) also. I still got the Gazebo GUI and can manipulate the robot (move it in the environment) but I can't spawn other objects neither control the PR2. The error I get from Gazebo is an "Illegal Instruction" (logs are enclosed at the bottom of the question). On answers.ros.org, I found that a similar issue was due to SSE compilation process, but that may have been solved with Gazebo 1.6.15 (I'm using 1.6.16). Here I read about a Graphical Card driver that was conflicting ( http://answers.gazebosim.org/question/658/gazebo-pr2-getting-stuck-at-launch/ ) but as it is a ROS Groovy issue and my Gazebo is launching well, I'm not sure it can apply. I updated Linux with the recommended updates and ros with the corresponding patches on the beginning of May. As I didn't used ROS since Monday 6th, that may be part of the explanation.

Does somebody have an idea of what's going wrong with PR2 ? I can still spawn simple boxes in the environment. Thanks for reading !

EDIT : Any advice ?

Here are the logs :

It would be nice to be able to update to a newer gazebo version, present on Groovy or Hydro, in order to avoid past bugs with older versions of gazebo.
