BTW: I'm a Linux guy and I'd prefer to work with it on my favorite platform.
Is there a place I can get tools to do it (compilers, drivers for the IR
interface
or whatever else is needed)?

It's fairly straightforward to get your development environment setup on Linux.
The homepage for the brickos project has documentation but only for debian
systems.  I use debian but I prefer to use the cvs version rather than the
somewhat out of date binaries.  The documentation for setting up your
environment for other flavors of Linux is scattered but I found the following
webpage to have the most helpful information:
http://www.cs.utah.edu/~zxshen/BrickOS-Cyclone/INSTALL.html

The driver for the usb tower, http://legousb.sourceforge.net, was recently
submitted to be added to the kernel tree of 2.6.1
http://lwn.net/Articles/64778/.

I use a patched 2.4.23 kernel.



Thanks a lot for the tips. I'm will definitely use the CVS version myself.

Thanks again,
Jean
