  Re: problems with legos on notebook
 
Hi Michael, Try the --slow option on firmdl3. This forces it to use the slow download speed, and may help. Also, use --debug to display more debugging info. This may help someone here to work out what the problem is. I'm not sure what the equivalent (...) (23 years ago, 18-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: problems with nqc under linux
 
It looks like the serial port just isn't getting the right settings (baud, parity, etc). I'm not sure how to go about diagnosing/fixing it...NQC makes some rather straightforward POSIX calls to configure the serial port. If it is not working, then (...)

  Re: problems with legos on notebook
 
Hallo Ross! This is just the problem, I can not download programs or the legos.srec. Both, firmdl3 and dll give the message "bad ir link". I have an other linux computer on which (with a built in com port) dll and firmdl3 work correctly. I compared (...) (23 years ago, 17-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: problems with nqc under linux
 
Hallo Dave! Thanks for your respond. I've done your suggestion. I connected two linux computers with a nullmodem cable. On the other computer nqc is working correctly, but it has installed an older version of nqc 2.0.2 (on my notebook runs nqc 2.2., (...) (23 years ago, 17-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: ROBOLAB problem
 
Yes, that is an annoying misfeature of Robolab 2.0. I believe it is fixed in RoboLab 2.5 (due out Real Soon Now) where there is now an icon that resets before waiting and one that doesn't. In the meantime, you can code it yourself: <= - Jump X Land (...) (23 years ago, 16-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
 
  ROM of RCX 2.0?
 
Hi, has anybody taken a look at the ROM of the RCX 2.0? Are there any significant changes? I'm looking in particular for changes in addresses of routines or data areas that could lead to interoperability problems. Jürgen (23 years ago, 16-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: problems with legos on notebook
 
Michael, I may not be much help as I only use my laptop for downloading programs, not development, and my serial port is built-in. Is there any message when it fails to connect, or not? Does it fail immediately, or timeout after a wait? Do firmdl3 & (...) (23 years ago, 16-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: problems with nqc under linux
 
Looks like the data is getting garbled. One guess would be that the port (under Linux) isn't handling odd parity with 8 data bits correctly. Is there any way you could connect this to another computer using a null modem? Preferably, use another (...) (23 years ago, 15-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

I did some more digging. When I look into the reg I do not find the reg keys as mentioned on the (URL) page. I dig in the code and set the com port by hand (directly to com1) and now I have the green ligth on the IR tower. However still no messages (...)

Hi, i am just doing my first steps with legOS and i want to send some data back to the PC. Is there any kind of software for the PC to read that data and save or display it? TIA Chris (23 years ago, 13-Aug-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
