OK, for the archives: I got an answer from Dave Baum (author of nxtcom). He says that error #89 indicates memory fragmentation -- even though my NXT had plenty of free RAM in total, there was no single contiguous block big enough to hold the new (...)

To follow up my own post: I've since verified that I have 45K free on the NXT, and the file I'm installing is under 13K. I've also restarted both my Mac and my NXT, and still get that mysterious error 89. After more experimentation, it does appear (...) (17 years ago, 5-Mar-08, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

|

I've been using the nxtcom utility to download NXC apps from my Mac. It was working fine just a few minutes ago, but all of a sudden (starting about 10 minutes ago) it's giving me a "NXT Error #89". I've searched the web and read the read-me, and (...) (17 years ago, 5-Mar-08, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

John, Ah. That works fine. I guess I was thinking the graphics data would be compiled into the binary, but the lack of a path in the filenames in the various include files should have given me a clue. -Tim (...) (17 years ago, 3-Mar-08, to lugnet.robotics)

Interestingly, this exchange caused me to break out my own RCX 1.0 to do some experimentation. I was able to get the serial IR tower to work with Windows Vista Ultimate x64 by using the USB to serial cable from a Vex programming kit (it's actually a (...)

You'll need to either get the RCX 2.0 software or use NQC. As far as I know no one has (yet) managed to use the IrDa port and I believe Vista doesn't support Serial ports... you might try a USB to Serial converter, but that doesn't always work. (...) (17 years ago, 3-Mar-08, to lugnet.robotics)

(...) I will check into this when I get home this evening but I think your problem may be that BricxCC and NBC do not automatically download the .RIC files referenced in the program source code. Those must be downloaded manually, which you can (...) (17 years ago, 3-Mar-08, to lugnet.robotics.nxt, lugnet.robotics, FTX)

Hi, I am just coming out of my (second) 'dark ages', now that my kid has turned 5y and is starting to build LEGO, so I can get my LEGO out of the stores again... I didn't have the time yet to check all postings, but can someone quickly fill me in (...) (17 years ago, 3-Mar-08, to lugnet.robotics)

I'm just getting started with bricxcc (and winxp on my mac), so I'm hoping there's something painfully obvious I'm missing. I've compiled and run a few simple nbc and nxc programs (mostly from John's book), but invaders.nbc isn't working for me. I (...)

(...) I emailed Karen with the solution to her problem. This can trip you up if you aren't careful. Drawing values to the screen can confuse you if you draw over the top of an existing number without clearing the screen first. John Hansen (17 years ago, 29-Feb-08, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
