Make Vm installation suck less #4

Open JasonGibson274 opened 7 years ago

JasonGibson274 commented 7 years ago

There were lots of VM issues while doing a giant install fest. Recommend Creating a comprehensive guide that they follow before hand and then dedicated debugging time so that only those with problems are there s everyone else does not get bored.

Common problems: if error cannot start with VT-x in message: turn on virtualization from the BIOS virtualization setting

black screen: make sure video RAM is non zero

black screen: make sure that 3D acceleration is turned off

black screen: make sure 64 bit linux is selected instead of 32 bit

make sure to export it with usb 1.1 selected

rviz segfault turn 3D acceleration off

RoboCup has a pretty simple getting started guide you can steal parts of or modify as you wish:
