FRCSim Mecanum Drive example help

[u2fletch]

Installed FRCSim on my Ubuntu system last night in an effort to get an example of Mecanum drive up and running to show our programming team today.

Was able to run the Gearsbot sample code, (although my gamepad mapping was not correct, can fix that) but was wondering if anyone else has gotten the simple drive examples to run. All the code that I think is the bare minimum to run looks like it is there in the code examples, but I cannot get the simulated bot to respond.

Really would like to give my new programmers something to work with this week.
