 | | Re: How to setup gcc and make in cygwin
|

I, too, have been at it for three weeks. gcc and bintools build OK under cygwin, but when it gets to the cross-compiler, the whole make process craps out. The compile fails because some of the cross-compiler sources are (complaining about) missing (...) (23 years ago, 3-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

|

(...) Bad news I'm afraid: Your laptop and phone are using IrDA which is a vastly different technology than the RCX uses. The RCX protocol is more like a TV remote. (In fact, if you have a 'learning' remote, you can use it to drive your RCX!) I (...) (23 years ago, 2-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics)

No matter how hard I try - or how many different "this is how to do legOS under Win32" web sites I visit - I cannot get legOS and its associated cross-compiler to build. The stuff from brickOS dies during the make process because of "missing" (...) (23 years ago, 2-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

(...) I don't think you'll run out of memory, unless you let the RCX play songs. But you'll run out of sensor and actuator ports soon ;-) Stef Mientki (23 years ago, 2-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) I think you are much too negative there, leJOS is just a different tradeoff in the middle between NQC/LEGO firmware and brickOS (formerly legOS): - It's faster than NQC/firmware but slower than brickOS (I've not measured it, but a factor of 10 (...)

Thanks! I could have problems with program size but until I begin to code it I wouldn't know it so... I will stand on NQC for my "training period" (I'm new on this kinds of projects so I need to learn the basic things before getting into more (...) (23 years ago, 2-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics)

Hi You need 4 photo-resistor and two small plattes like "walls" (e.g. built with lego). On your device you mount one platte horizontal and the other vertical. The two small walls have to be mounted rectangular to your device in the direction to the (...) (23 years ago, 2-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics.handyboard)

Anyone ever use a PCMCIA Card w/ USB to connect the Lego Cam to your computer? I recently had the cord from my IR tower impede the direction of my knee. Thusly, ripping the USB connection right out of the back of my Lap-Top. So my USB ports are (...) (23 years ago, 2-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics.vc, lugnet.general)

(...) Well, NQC makes use of ALL the facilities of the device that you can reach with the standard firmware - so within those parameters, it's pretty complete. If you want to go so far as to toss out the Lego firmware then LegOS is a good choice - (...) (23 years ago, 2-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics)

Hi! I'm beginning my degree-ending project and it involves a LEGO Mindstorms. I've been searching the Internet for different "development enviroments" and I've found a few ones. The most interesting ones I've found are NQC, leJOS and leGOS. The (...) (23 years ago, 1-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics)
