Error

This error isn't systematic. If I try enough times it will eventually work (?)

~$ ./BreezySLAM/examples/urgslam.py

Yeah, sorry ... this error is certainly related to the BreezyLidar problems you were having before. The command you issued always works with my Hokuyo URG04LX. Unfortunately, because of the high cost of the Hokuyo units, I cannot reproduce the problem here. If you figure it out and manage to fix it, please post a pull request.

May be we don't have the same firmware, could you check?

Here after the output to my terminal

~/BreezyLidar/examples$ python urgtest.py

Yes, you're right, Joel. You are running firmware 3.3.01, whereas mine is 3.4.03:
