  Re: problems building crosscompiler with gcc2.95.2
 
Hallo! (...) Thanks, but this was not all. I had to download newlib and then in gcc-2.95.2/ add the links: ln -s ../newlib-1.9.0/newlib newlib ln -s ../newlib-1.9.0/libgloss libgloss Then reconfigure with additional option --with-headers and make.

  Positioning VIA 5th Wheel
 
I worked on a robotics project in which my program controlled a very big (18,000 pounds) piece of equipment and need to know its position. It was used for railroad track maintenance and road on the tracks. Even though this was a one dimensional (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  remote connection
 
Hi, I'm trying to find out how I could could communicate with the IR tower and RCX using Director shockwave 8, so then I can use a web page to controll it, I've seen the eight ball website, but it dosn't explain very much about how the RCX is linked (...)

  Re: 'make' error with legOS-0.2.4 - request for assistance
 
David, I seem to remember I had a similar problem (but I'm using Linux, so YMMV). In the Makefile, check that the lines where Makefile.common & Makefile.user are included specify the correct directory. They should be in the top-level LegOS (...)

  'make' error with legOS-0.2.4 - request for assistance
 
The kernel is successfully loaded into the RCX and the 'ch7' directory holds the 'simple.c' source listing along with a copy of the 'Makefile'(all as per instructions in the book "Extreme Mindstorms" pp151 to 154 incl.) Running Cygwin B20 and in the (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  DJGPP: Makefile.common change
 
I've checked in a minor change to makefile.common relating to DJGPP. If you have been having problems getting the DJGPP toolset to work, you should have better luck after getting this updated file. You should also refer to my web page at (URL) as (...) (24 years ago, 10-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: RCX low-battery indicator problem
 
(...) Contact LEGO Affairs. It seems you got the Lemon. Some part inside is probably in backwards... I see no user correctable 'fix' for this. Tell them it's not working and they will send you a new one. IF they make you send the dead one back (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: XCam2 as replace for Vision Command?
 
(...) All of Lego's Software (Besides Exploration Mars) requires the LEGO Cam. This is not a requirement. It's so you don't pirate the software. It's most annoying that I can't use my pro cams for any of it. There are some nice features... It has (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: Time a call to a function
 
(...) The global sys_time contains the number of milliseconds since... well, since something. I think it's how long the RCX has been powered on since the last firmware download. It's probably updated every millisecond. It's a 32-bit number, so it (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Time a call to a function
 
Hi, I am trying to determine the cpu time it takes to implement a number of additions and multiplications in a function, each time I call it, so to make it faster by improving the algorithm. It would be helpfull to display the result on the RCX lcd. (24 years ago, 9-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  RCX low-battery indicator problem
 
This is my first venture into lugnet.robotics, so excuse me if this has been asked and answered before (I normally frequent lugnet.cad).

  Re: problems building crosscompiler with gcc2.95.2
 
(...) It's not important. We don't use those libraries. (...) Include '-i' (must be lowercase) in your command line to get MAKE to ignore errors and continue with the build. make -i cross LANGUAGES="c c++" Rossz (24 years ago, 8-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: problems building crosscompiler with gcc2.95.2
 
(...) gcc uses a different method for this than egcs did. When configuring the gcc cross-compiler, add the option "--with-newlib". This will do the inhibit libc things. You don't have to edit the Makefile afterwards. After that, just follow the (...) (24 years ago, 8-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: XCam2 as replace for Vision Command?
 
Pinnacle Systems has a USB video capture device which allows one to capture the analog video signal. Works great with software like the Exploration Mars software, which just checks if you have a video input of some sort. Vision command, however, (...)

  problems building crosscompiler with gcc2.95.2
 
Hallo ! I need C++ support, that's why I want to build a crosscompiler with gcc instead of older egcs (like discribed in LegOS howto). I use suse linux 6.4 and downloaded binutils2.10.1 and gcc2.95.2. Building of binutils2.10.1 worked fine on my (...) (24 years ago, 8-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: XCam2 as replace for Vision Command?
 
Apparently it only works with the Lego cam. Using any other camera (USB or not) will not work as several people here tried it already. I have both the lego camera and the XCam2. XCam2 is great as long as you have plenty of light! Otherwise, the (...) (24 years ago, 8-Jan-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
