To the folks at WPI if you are reading this: Please cut down on your errors. At the very least, put a timer on them to limit the rate of errors being thrown. They seriously are a problem for anything that can cause an error on every single Teleop loop. In the time between cRIO finishing boot and camera finishing boot, we can still sometimes have this problem (NetConsole definitely shows the overflow of errors).
I'm not really sure what "errors" you're talking about.

How is it WPI's fault if your camera mount causes it to continually reset? Isn't that your mistake?

What kind of errors are you seeing in every teleop loop? If it's something wrong with the WPI library, they're probably going to be able to fix it faster if you can provide some more details.
