  Re: LegOS 2.2 on solaris
 
G'day, (...) Do you know if/how they were able to fix the problem? Btw. I used binutils 2.9.1 and gcc 2.95.2 (with the patches for the interrupts applied) to create the legOS and gcc 2.8.1 to build the cross compiler. Carsten (25 years ago, 1-Dec-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: LegOS 2.2 on solaris
 
(...) You're right, that's the echo of what you're sending. This looks suspiciously like the problems many people had with gcc-2.9.5 compiled legOS on regular Linux boxes, you know.

I now get signaled when I can read from the serial port, but what (...) (25 years ago, 30-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Dave ... although at this point I'm not using non-standard firmware, I'd like to cast my vote for option (2). The command line may be a bit "unwieldy", but (2) gives the best solution. Thanks, - Nick - Dave Baum wrote: [snip] (...) (25 years ago, 30-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: problem downloading srec file to RCX
 
(...) In the process of adding support for quad-speed download to nqc I noticed a bug in the firmware download code that caused problems with short downloads. This may (or may not) account for your problem. Either way, the bug will be fixed next (...) (25 years ago, 30-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: PC <> RCX Communication?
 
(...) The op-code for sending a message is $F7 "set message". Unfortunately somehow it is left out of spirit.ocx, so you have to go down to the serial protocol in order to use it.
