  Re: Hmm... install not going so smooth
 
Thanks for everyone's help. I just decided to install all the packages.... but now I have a different problem. I start to compile the cross compiler, and everything seems to be going fine.... except at the very very end. I get the following message: (...)

  Re: Hmm... install not going so smooth
 
setup.exe Package Listing on cygwin.com will tell you that you need the libintl1 package. Probably dependencies for grep are incorrect, otherwise it would have been installed automatically. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Samuel Winchenbach" (...)

  Re: Hmm... install not going so smooth
 
Samuel, Yes I have seen this error. I am guessing your install a couple of weeks ago was actually using B20 version of cygwin? or that you have reinstalled cygwin? I was moving things around and got this error along with some error dialog boxes (...) (22 years ago, 14-May-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Hmm... install not going so smooth
 
Hello, I decided to scrape my machine today and when I tried to reinstall legos I ran into a problem compling the cross compiler under cygwin.

Ok i just started using freebsd and i was wondering if anyone could tell me what tools i need to install to make legos compile and run correctly. Thankx, Jason Hensler (22 years ago, 14-May-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: More problems with floats
 
(...) It turns out to be the egcs 1.1.2 I compiled; the RPMs from sourceforge work fine. I'll try to find why my compiler was buggy... Thanks for your reply. Eric (22 years ago, 13-May-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Camera and legOS
 
I wonder if anyone knows about the compability between legOS and the camera set named Vision command that are available for the Legorobot?

  Re: More problems with floats
 
(...) Eric, did you ever resolve this? If not, I could try to reproduce this... but I'd need two things: 1) the type of the return value of getVarVal 2) the type of the bool typedef Also, if you could run your cross compiler with the -v flag, that (...)

(...) What might be doable and best is a documented bus extension (a card plug-in) slot.

  RE: What about this for a new RCX 2.5 setup?
 
I'd be happy with a good "official" LEGO SONAR sensor and a fixed version of the LEGO Rotation Sensor (without the lost "clicks" bug) On the RCX side, I'd like a RCX 3.0 with 6+ sensor inputs and more outputs (and more RAM. I'm using MANAS sets to (...) (22 years ago, 13-May-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.dear-lego)
 
  Re: Converting a float to an integer
 
It looks like xdist and ydist are integers. You divide an integer by an integer, the answer is an integer. For example, if xdist=5 and ydist=10, you have 5/10, the answer is 0 (with a remainder of 5). So, if you do the multiply first, you will be (...)

  RE: Converting a float to an integer
 
I have built a plotter and want to draw a diagonal line of varying angles. It requires one motor to run slower then the other at a ratio based on the distance it has to travel compared to the other one. So I do something like this xspeed = (int) (...)

Oh, and I forgot one of the "BIGGEST" wishes on the list: 5) Linksys wireless access port response rather than the directional IR port.

  What about this for a new RCX 2.5 setup?
 
Seems to me that the BEST implementation of the RCX would be for some CORE changes and feature sets to be built in. I realize that these would be somewhat expensive, but I would pay pretty good money to have an RCX with the following specs (built (...) (22 years ago, 10-May-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
