I've tried to install Bricx and NXC but when I try to compile a simple program I get an error like "Unable to find include file: "NXCDefs.h". I figure I probably just have something configured incorrectly but can't find any guidance as to what I (...) (17 years ago, 28-Dec-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

(...) The reason asking is that sometimes we send teams of students to a country with different voltage in the outlet, i.e. 110V instead of 220V, and the LEGO adapter accepts 220V, but not 110V. However, we have a DC adapter that accepts both 110V (...) (17 years ago, 20-Dec-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

Ok, so after 7 years of using my faithful Palm Vx, syncing it to my Kubuntu Linux machine at work put something on it to make it fatally crash every time I ran the calendar. Seeing as this was the most important function of the Palm, I decided it (...) (17 years ago, 18-Dec-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt, lugnet.robotics.palm)

Because the motors start to turn, then the program reaches the end, and exits. You need to tell the program to "wait for" something after the motors start. Steve (...) (17 years ago, 3-Dec-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

Why would two motors, set to turn and with unlimited chosen for time out, only turn a couple of times and stop. this motor command is the only command in the program. patty (17 years ago, 3-Dec-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

My NXT Charger came with my battery. The output of the charger is 10.8 volts, 700 ma 8W. I would just buy the Lego charger. After reaching a full charge, the charger goes into a trickle charge mode.

(...) I'd say a bad idea, since it's supposed to be supplied with 9-12V *AC* (not DC) power. Like the RCX 1.0, it might work under a DC supply... but that's not what it was designed for. (17 years ago, 30-Nov-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)

Hi, Can anybody confirm whether recharging a NXT battery block using 9V or 12V DC adapter is a bad or good idea, please? Seems that LEGO published HW schematics for the brick, but not for the battery block... Pavel. (17 years ago, 30-Nov-07, to lugnet.robotics.nxt)
