  Re: Scheduler patch
 
(...) Do you have some examples where your patch could be useful? Eric (23 years ago, 14-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Scheduler patch
 
Joe I'm happy you found my patch quite interesting! I, just as you, think the kernel could be simplified quite alot. Actually my goal was initially to reduce size and overhead but I when I decided to add proportional timeslicing the goal changed. (...) (23 years ago, 14-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Scheduler patch
 
Joel, I have found your work to be quite interesting! I made quite a few modifications in the kernel starting with ver 0.2.5 and had hoped to have some of the modifications included in ver 0.2.7 My goal was to reduce size and overhead which is quite (...)

  LEGO cuts the price of the RCX Brick
 
On the Lego website the price for an RCX has been cut from $119.00 to $59.99. (URL) the great price - what's up with the RCX? Is LEGO about to roll out a new RCX? Has anyone heard anything? Tonya Witherspoon (23 years ago, 14-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  RE: Transmit Frequency
 
Hi Jürgen :) (...) No, it's a part that you can rotate with a screwdriver. I'm used to see these on radios or walkie-talkies ou even on tv-tuners Maybe I'm wrong, and that part has nothing to do with the RF of the unit. I dunno if this changes the (...)

  Re: Transmit Frequency
 
Hi Marco, (...) there are several frequencies in the 27MHz band. (...) Probably a quartz. (...) You should buy two quartz for the exact same frequency in the 27MHz band, then it should be ok. (...) No, I have only one unit. Jürgen (23 years ago, 13-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.cybermaster)
 
  RE: Transmit Frequency
 
(...) Mine's also 27MHz. By the way, has anyone tried to alter this freq ? I had the opportunity to get my hands on a Cybermaster with a stuck motor. After opening it up, I saw the part (don't know the correct name of the component) where the (...) (23 years ago, 13-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.cybermaster)

Hello! I've been doing some changes to the legOS scheduler. Now execution-time of user tasks are proportional to priorities. See (URL) are made to legOS 0.2.6 and I didn't manage to get a working diff file, so just download the following files and (...) (23 years ago, 13-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Lasers, et al...
 
Thanks for all of your replies. I guess my main intent was to make sure I wasn't going to fry my light sensor by pointing a laser at it. I'm assuming laser pointer strength beams aren't powerful enough to harm the sensor. All of the links have been (...) (23 years ago, 12-Jun-02, to lugnet.robotics)
