| Hi ! I'm having trouble trying to make a Linux box (Mandrake 7.2 kernel 2.2.17-21mdksmp) communicate with my RCX. My ultimate goal is to try and make the PC control the RCX via infrared (so as not to suffer from the RCX memory limitations). To do (...) (23 years ago, 11-Jun-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
