Hi, We are just in the kit acquisition stage of integrating bluetooth, Mindtorms and Vision Command via wireless networks for a remote sensor project. We call it "Legless" for obvious reasons. Will keep you all informed. Mike Reddy, Senior Lecturer (...) (23 years ago, 3-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics.tele)

Liam, What exactly are your errors using cygwin? Post them here. I might take a couple of posts back and forth but I do believe it is possible. I have it running on Windows 98 and I know other have been successful with Windows. What windows OS are (...) (23 years ago, 3-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

I have tried posting about the pre-built tools for Win32-cygwin before, however, I think the person I was talking to was too frustrated by then to try it. If you head over to the hitachi web site, they have a link for third party compilers. They (...) (23 years ago, 3-Oct-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

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 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 (...)
