  Re: No CD with my new RIS 1.5
 
I would contact LEGO Technical Support.and have them send you the CD. There is no other drag and drop simple way to program the RCX that you can get online for free. The update to 2.0 won't do you any harm or good at this point. (24 years ago, 15-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  No CD with my new RIS 1.5
 
Greetings. Just bought my first RIS 1.5 set. Took three days of looking in Miami and purchased as many sets only to go home and find a different missing part everytime. This time I'm missing the CD and the registration card. But there are no more (...) (24 years ago, 15-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  [ANN] leJOS 1.0.0beta3 released!
 
Beta 3 of leJOS is out at (URL) main change is that the NT "Permission Denied" bug in lejosfirmdl appears to be fixed. Thanks to Paolo Masetti for his hints, and to anyone else who's contributed to the firmware downloader in legOS. Enjoy, --Jose (24 years ago, 15-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)
 
  Re: getpid?
 
(...) I wouldn't want to do so, not because the H8 does not implement inline, but because cpid is a local variable to tm.c (although it is not declared as such...). I think it's cleaner to have this user - kernel interface in real functions. Eddie (...) (24 years ago, 15-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Data capture
 
Since this is a RoboLab newsgroup, he is probably using RoboLab. Level 4 is a RoboLab term as well.

  Re: getpid?
 
Eddie, Would there be any problem making these inline, seeing how they're one-liners? (I'm assuming here that the H8 target implements inline) Regards, ROSCO (...) (24 years ago, 15-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: Data capture
 
(...) What is a Level 4 program? Are you using NQC? With NQC I collected 1400 data points with a temperature sensor - it worked fine. Best regards Bernd (24 years ago, 14-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.robolab)
 
  Re: Any difference btw RCX1.0 and RCX1.5?
 
(...) I don't know if there are differences in the sets (pieces). However, one big difference is that if the RIS 1.5 is operated with re-chargeable batteries, the batteries cannot be charged in the RCX since there is no plug anymore. Best regards (...)

  PC requirements for RIS 1.5
 
Hello I was wondering if one can run the RIS 1.5 from a PC with a Pentium 133, 64Mb RAM ? The box says 166 is required. Thanks alot John (24 years ago, 14-Dec-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  Re: getpid?
 
(...) AFAIK there aren't any built-in mechanisms. However, when a thread is launched, the launching process does get its PID as a return value from execi().

Hoorah, thx alot yes it does work now...though I had patched my old one using the pkunzip repair facility. Is Vision command any use with pbForth... I mean any point of getting it ?
