Comment on Gazebo Tutorial

When initializing Gazebo, one should run the gzserver comment, however, this can result in a malfunctioning program, i.e. you will get the following message: Segmentation fault (core dumpt). The solution for this is to run Gazebo in debugging mode (gdb):

  1. Open a terminal (ctrl-alt-t)
  2. Run:
    gdb /usr/bin/gzserver
    when (gbd) is shown, type run and <enter>
  3. Open another terminal (ctrl-alt-t)
  4. Run:
    gdb /usr/bin/gzclient
    when (gbd) is shown, type run and <enter>
