  Errors compiling egcs
 
Hi, I've just downloaded and attempted to install the binutils, egcs, and LegOs on my computer as per the instructions at (URL) only difference between these instructions and what I have done is the path to where the software is to be installed.

  Re: which Linux distro?
 
(...) Good Idea ! I had no problem using legOS when using a RedHat 7.1, Mandrake8 or a Conectiva 6.0, As far as I remember, there is a Debian package available for legOS. So... no matter which distribution you'll use, it will be far better than (...) (23 years ago, 31-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Control the RCX from AppleScript
 
(...) Ahah! Check out the following SourceForge projects - still sadly in the VERY early stages! - for some potentially good news: (URL) too have USB devices that have been rendered useless by OS X and companies not wanting to bother upgrading (...)

  which Linux distro?
 
Hi, I am thinking of moving over to Linux, partly for legOS reasons (Lnp easier to set up for a start), but partly for other reasons (free software, morality etc, ie the usual waffle.) I am considering Redhat 7.2, Suse 7.3 personal or Suse 7.3 (...) (23 years ago, 31-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Control the RCX from AppleScript
 
Sorry for the quick updates, but Robot Controller 1.4b2 is now available! This adds the ability to control several motors simultaneously in AppleScript. I have also posted an example AppleScript Studio project which uses Robot Controller to drive a (...) (23 years ago, 30-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: Incorrect result
 
(...) Yes, this is what happens when one is used to just making everything long and not considering overflows. Even worse was that I was doing the math on the computer's calculator, but not looking at the intermediate result, just typing in the (...) (23 years ago, 30-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: Incorrect result
 
(...) 256 * 128 = 32768, one higher as the biggest positive integer value. The cast to long would help, but your cast is too late. I have not tested, but I think rc += ( (long)b->magnitude * (long)TA_costable[...] ) >> 7; will help. Try output in (...) (23 years ago, 30-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  RE: Incorrect result
 
<snipped code> (...) Robert, this is a classic problem with ranges of singed numbers in C rx = (long)(a->magnitude * TA_costable[a->direction]) >> 7; I don't have an RCX in frot of me, but I think you need to cast a->magnitude to long before the (...)

  Incorrect result
 
This problem, unlike the other, is definitely not a result of my eyes/brain being tired or something. I thoroughly displayed every value before and after evaluation and the result is ***WRONG***. Here is the code and the values: typedef struct { int (...) (23 years ago, 30-Jan-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: Control the RCX from AppleScript
 
The lego camera will not work with imovie, I'm afraid. Imovie only works with DVcameras, not with webcams. I think the lego camera is actually one of the logitech cameras inside, so there may be a MacOS 9 driver, but not a MacOS X driver. I don't (...)
