  Usb-uhci fix that works with legousbtower + nqc
 
Hi Georg, I have tried usb-uhci.c version 1.275 found in the usb cvs. It works. Great, we now have an official fix for those who prefer to use the newer usb-uhci module instead of uhci. Thank you very much, P.C. (24 years ago, 21-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re: thread class for legOS
 
(...) In fact, neither of these suggestions will work with the code as it stands, because the runWrapper() function tries to call the Run() function, which is a non-static member function. You could pass a pointer to the class instance (this) in the (...) (24 years ago, 21-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Re: broken motor, how to take apart?
 
I've never had one of these motors, so I don't know what's inside. However, I used to rebuild starter motors for vehicles and a problem like this was usually associated to solidified grease, especially in gear reduction motors. We used to set the (...)

  Re: broken motor, how to take apart?
 
This general subject has been discussed here before. I'm sure you can search the lugnet archives for more info. However, as my supply of motors has aged, I too have noted that they do tend to seize or at least stiffen up with lack of use. I have (...) (24 years ago, 21-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics)

  Re: Handyboard Sonar question
 
I don't have any connector in the J11 space (middle right edge of the expansion board). All I have are 9 holes in the board that are in the same configuration as the bottom of the sonar module's 9-pin male connector. So if I solder the bottom of the (...)

  Re: thread class for legOS
 
(...) Unless you define a function as a member function, there is no this parameter at all. In the example given, it was not a member function at all (nor should it be). I believe you are thinking of a static member function vs. a non-static member (...) (24 years ago, 21-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  RE: newbie
 
If you decide to use LegOS you won't be needing nor will you have the chance to use NQC because a RCX with LegOS loaded won't understand nor respond to any standard firmware commands.
