Hi Mark, Thanks for the help. In Steve's legway code he reads from LIGHT_1 and LIGHT_3 (even if there is no sensor hooked to LIGHT_3). When I was running his code with instrumentation for both sensors, I had nothing hooked to SENSOR_3, and I still (...) (21 years ago, 25-Feb-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hi, Delighted I was to see that the USB lego tower driver was accepted into the Linux kernel tree, so I downloaded linux 2.6.2 and installed the lego driver with it. It checks in perfectly, no problem with the driver. But, when I try to upload (...) (21 years ago, 25-Feb-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) Because of the way BrickOS uses interrupts to handle active sensors, it's possible for sensors to be deprived of power for 300us or more, though typically the interval is only 30us or so. This is due to long interrupt latencies in BrickOS that (...) (21 years ago, 25-Feb-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hi, I instrumented Steve Hassenplug's legway code so that after it falls over it can dump sensor data and motor control valiables out to a PC. One of the things I noticed in this process is that aperiodically, the sensor inputs give a sensor reading (...) (21 years ago, 25-Feb-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
