  brickos sound-related crash
 
I've been having some trouble with the 0.2.6.10 brickos kernel compiled with gcc 3.3.2. Whenever I try to use the dsound_play or sound_system functions, the kernel crashes immediately.

(...) And at $395 US for just the brick I'm sure we'll all line up to buy one :-) NOT!

  lego reflectance sensors
 
Hello, we are using Lego reflectance sensors for an experiment and the HB is showing a rather strange behavior. If we plug a single sensor in the expansion board, it works fine, but when two of them are connected, then none of them work. Even more, (...)

I finally got some pictures uploaded of my biped made from the 8455 set. This model is built from the parts of one 8455 set. The hoses are not from the set, so your colors may vary. It took quite a while to find geometries that work using the 8455 (...) (22 years ago, 30-Oct-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.robotics)
