• Some students had problems connecting to the robot, although no their name was listed in the name_list. Armlib gave no informative error-message, so I added error-messages for each escape of downloadlib.
• Armlib compiles under gcc-4.1.2, simulator not. Try to change to an earlier version, but none of the versions gcc-2.95.3 to gcc-3.4.3 was available.
• Adding /home/cs_ai/pkg to PACKAGEPATH helped. With gcc-2.95.3 no complains about the code, but gtk-2.0/gdk/gdkcairo.h cannot find cairo.h. Adding /usr/inclue/cairo to the makefile helped.
• the simulator needs lib/Linux/libumi.a, libarm.a, libxmlparsers.a. Updated makefile with correct location ../../lib. Made simulator, and copied that simulator to /home/stud/robotics/bin/.
• Now the armlib reports 'downloadlib has problems connecting to socket'.
• Seems to be a firewall problem. From another machine the program works fine. Committed changes.
