I tried installing ROS kinetic based on the instruction given above. Everything seemed to have been installing properly until I got this error:
Setting up ros-kinetic-desktop (1.3.2-0xenial-20180830-145536-0800) ...
Setting up odbcinst (2.3.1-4.1) ...
Processing triggers for libc-bin (2.23-0ubuntu3) ...
/sbin/ldconfig.real: /usr/lib/libnv_extimgdev.so is not a symbolic link
The process just abruptly stopped.
Though most of the functionalities of ROS are still present (I tried running roscore and also turtle_sim) when I tried configuring a joystick for linux (using steps at joy/Tutorials/ConfiguringALinuxJoystick - ROS Wiki) the same error pops up
Setting up joystick (1:1.4.9-1) ...
Setting up ros-kinetic-joy (1.12.0-0xenial-20180826-035200-0800) ...

I tried connecting my joy stick but it was not detected. Can someone help me out with this error. Thank you.
