The resistor is simply a pullup on the gumstix's console port receive line, so it doesn't drop into the bootloader immediately on power-up. Eventually I'll solder the resistor on the bottom of the board, but right now the way things are looking I'm not going to be using the robostix anyways, so its a moot point (see my blog for details -

The connector with the yellow jumpers is a standard jumper used to connect the gumstix and the AVR on the robostix via serial.
The power connection on the solderless breadboard is simply power provided to the AX-12. The robostix is powered from a separate power supply right now, for desktop testing.
