[pc_monitor] AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'group'

When trying to run the pc_monitor I get:

process[pc_monitor-5]: started with pid [4704]
process[diagnostic_aggregator-6]: started with pid [4709]

It is launched via the scitos bringup files.

Also it hogs a lot of memory even though - or maybe because - it doesn't launch properly.

What is the name of the wireless network on Linda? I guess not 'wlan0'..

@cdondrup Please could you test with my fork: https://github.com/cburbridge/scitos_robot, branch hydro-devel. It should not crash when started. Also, please check that when you set the parameter wireless_iface parameter within the nodes namespace to the name of your wireless network interface, that the /diagnostics topic contains correct messages about the state of your wireless.

Will try tomorrow... hopefully.

Tomorrow has become 18 days I'm afraid. Now that Linda doesn't work I will not be able to test that for the next few days. If anyone else wants to give it a try, please do.
