(...) Ok, Linux packages/binaries for 2.1 r2 are now available at (URL). I'm really busy at work right now, so this was done kinda in a hurry :) I'm pretty sure that there's no problems, but please let me know if I missed something. Thanks! (25 years ago, 27-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

David: Thanks for the tips - I really appreciate any pointers/help I can get. Actually, if I abandon the idea of subprocedures and move the code within my main task, it runs just fine. However, the whole idea of this "lesson" is to use subprocedures (...) (25 years ago, 27-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

Hi Kathy, My first question would be "What are the values of CHECK_LEFT and CHECK_RIGHT?" If they're the same, that would produce the behavior you're getting. I know I often make a mistake like that when I copy and paste a line of code. You also may (...) (25 years ago, 27-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

I sure could use some help. I'm trying to recreate the BugBot program from the book "Definitive Guide to Lego Mindstorms" in VB 6. It's a simple program with a tank-like robot that has two "feelers" - one if the robot hits something on the right; (...) (25 years ago, 27-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

| | Re: Battery life question
|
|
(...) I measured the RCX consumes about 33mA in ROM or Lego Firmware, around 26.5mA under LegOS (due to the sleep instruction in the idle task), and it will use 0.034mA when turned off. No matter how long you sleep in your task, the RCX will consume (...) (25 years ago, 26-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

I searched through the archives and couldn't find anything that specifically addressed this question, so I figured I might as well ask.

(...) I don't know if Markus would approve, but it might be worthwhile to do this and put it in to CVS so that 0.2.4(?) would be compilable with 2.95.x. Does anyone have the time/skill to do this?

(...) IMHO it is better anyway to use pure assembly files when generating code like memcpy (which is completely in assembly here). Call them memcpy.S, and you won't have the problem of accidentially removing them. With this you can use 'c' style (...) (25 years ago, 26-Mar-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
