  Re: Custom firmware crashing on boot
 
(...) The modifications are slightly more complex than simply replacing c_cmd.c, but that's basically the only NXTGCC file that I've modified. The new VM is copied mostly verbatim from another program, and is contained in a new file, pcodesim.c. (...) (17 years ago, 28-Jun-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt.nxthacking)
 
  Re: Is there a usable Mac OS X version?
 
(...) I think John Hansen actually made a pbForth terminal in NQC. My RCXTcl works on a PC, but I never did get around to packaging it for Macs. Probably because I don't have one myself :-) That being said, once you have a terminal program to talk (...) (17 years ago, 28-Jun-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.pbforth, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Is there a usable Mac OS X version?
 
Is there a usable version of pbForth for Mac OS X and the USB tower? I have NQC, so there should be no trouble downloading firmware, and Mac OS X has good terminal software, but how do I set up things so that terminal communication goes via the USB (...)

  RE: Custom firmware crashing on boot
 
Here's two things to try since you've only swapped out the VM hich I assume is a replacement for the "c_cmd.c" file. 1. First there is a "#define" that specifies the start address of the file system. If you're 10K larger you're going to need to (...) (17 years ago, 27-Jun-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt.nxthacking)
 
  Re: Custom firmware crashing on boot
 
(...) It is nice with some action. (...) OK, that is very good. (...) A quick question: Are you running binsert after you compile? It may be worthwhile to look at lines 50-55 in "Makefile".

  Custom firmware crashing on boot
 
Hey, I'm new here, so if I seem like a n00b, it's probably because I am. Hopefully my question won't be too annoying. I'm trying to use the NXTGCC 0.0.9 package as a starting point for custom firmware. The main point of my custom firmware is to swap (...)

  Re: Re Rafe Donahue's GBC binary counter
 
(...) Hi Jordan, You are right; Rafe's counter actually does this already. The only mod would be the storage trays you mentioned. In fact, during down times at Brickworld, I often mention that the machine is really an adding maching and all we are (...) (17 years ago, 25-Jun-07, to lugnet.robotics)
 
  Re Rafe Donahue's GBC binary counter
 
I saw this and was reminded of Rafe's binary counter: (URL) a marble-powered binary adder. Rafe's counter could do this with a tiny bit of modification. He'd just have to add a tray at the top and bottom to temporarily store the input and output for (...) (17 years ago, 25-Jun-07, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.technic)

  Re: lcd display on RCX 1.0
 
(...) If you load RCX2 firmware in a RCX1 brick (they are fully compatible*), you'll have acces to this function (and all other RCX2 specific possibilities) Philo *Except for some minor differences in IR hardware. (17 years ago, 25-Jun-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  lcd display on RCX 1.0
 
NQC: with RCX2, it has a function to display a user defined value. Is there a way to do it with RCX 1.0? How about just to display the current mail value with RCX1.0? Suggestion? Thanks in advance. --Elizabeth (17 years ago, 24-Jun-07, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

  Clicking NXT
 
I've got the dreaded nxt clicking syndrome on my beta NXT. I had lent it out to one of my FLL team members and she said it just started ticking one day. I'm pretty sure she wasn't trying to download firmware. The last version of firmware I had on (...) (17 years ago, 23-Jun-07, to lugnet.robotics)
