Samuel, Yes I have seen this error. I am guessing your install a couple of weeks ago was actually using B20 version of cygwin? or that you have reinstalled cygwin?

Typical remote control IRs like the RCX system are usually in the 870 - 950 nm range, just below visible red. A standard silicon CMOS camera chip will "see" this fine unless it has an IR cut filter (commonly installed in camcorders etc). Silicon is (...) (23 years ago, 14-May-02, to lugnet.robotics)
