  Declaration of kernel_critsect_count
 
kernel_critsect_count is declared volatile in kernel/critsec.c, but without the volatile keyword in include/sys/critsec.h - this upsets gcc3. Please could these declarations be reconciled? Thanks, Max. (22 years ago, 15-Feb-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: no long range IR from laptop says Lego
 
Use a powered USB hub with the laptop. The power required for the USB IR Tower will come from the powered hub, rather than the laptop. - Rob (...) (22 years ago, 15-Feb-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)
 
  Re: no long range IR from laptop says Lego
 
(...) No idea. I think these values are used for accounting, to ensure that all devices together don't exceed available power. But I don't know how well this is implemented. (...)

  Re: dll and the USB tower

We had an informal Robo-Sumo thing at my work place tonight and I'm wondering if I killed my RCX. My 'bot had two gearmotors on A and two more on C to drive the wheels. Could they have drawn enough current when the 'bot was stalled to harm the RCX ? (...) (22 years ago, 14-Feb-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx)

  Re: now normally baumfamily != enteract
 
My free form description full of Url's didn't survive posting intact, but Lego replied all the same by email. After a thread of some length, we concluded: webmaster@lego.com welcomes reports of the broken links of lego.com. I'll next try to verify (...) (22 years ago, 13-Feb-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

(...) Fascinating stuff, thanks again. In particular, I didn't know Anyone had persuaded Windows to respond intelligently to Usb Configuration's of variable power.
