Implementing karto_stage.launch:
1. Error: ResourceNotFound: karto
Use crtl+shift+F to find all "karto" packages, and replace it as slam_karto.
Eg:
For all $(find karto), we should modify them to $(find slam_karto).
2. ERROR: cannot launch node of type [stage/stageros]: can't locate node [stageros] in package [stage]
Use crtl+shift+F to find all "stage" packages, and replace it as stage_ros which is pre-installed in ROS.
3. CMake Warning at /opt/ros/indigo/share/catkin/cmake/catkinConfig.cmake:76 (find_package):
Could not find a package configuration file provided by "move_base" with
any of the following names:
move_baseConfig.cmake
move_base-config.cmake
the required ROS Navigation packages:
sudo apt-get install ros-indigo-move-base ros-indigo-map-server ros-indigo-amcl ros-indigo-gmapping ros-indigo-openni2-launch ros-indigo-openni2-camera ros-indigo-dwa-local-planner

err: Unknown model type laser in world file. (/tmp/binarydeb/ros-indigo-stage-4.1.1/libstage/world.cc CreateModel)
ANSWER: http://answers.ros.org/question/33973/stage-error-in-fuerte/
An easy solution: $ perl -p -i -e 's/laser/ranger/g' $(find . -name *.world) $(find . -name *.inc)
Tip:
Use comment <!-- & --> to disable some lines to position the error source.
in willow-pr2-5cm.world
looks like you also have to wrap your laser in a "sensor" block...
define topurg ranger ( range_max 30.0 fov 270.25 samples 1081 # generic model properties color "black" size [ 0.05 0.05 0.1 ] )
Has now become:
define topurg ranger ( sensor( range_max 30.0 fov 270.25 samples 1081 ) # generic model properties color "black" size [ 0.05 0.05 0.1 ] )
5. rviz Robot Model Status Error ---- no robot model imported
Because there is no robot model imported. For now, just ignore it.
6. run slam in stage and rviz
$ roslaunch slam_karto karto_stage.launch
use Nav_goal in rviz to navigate the robot
