[pox-dev] Nicira errors

Are you sure you've got the upgraded version running?  Just to make sure so we don't spend time chasing down a dead end, try running this component:
http://www.noxathome.org/x/Murphy/switch_info.py

If that does show that you've got the new version running, capture the control traffic using Wireshark/tcpdump or the openflow.debug component (which makes pcap trace files) and post it here.
