  java/RCX combo
 
Can't find the email address right now, but there were some questions here a week or so ago about interfacing Java and the RCX. I lied and said that nothing had been published on the web about the Sun Jini demonstration. In fact, there is a link (...) (24 years ago, 29-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: DJGPP/DOS legOS Howto
 
(...) Rossz- I'm home for the summer (which means Windows only for now) so my deepest thanks for everything :) While I'm sitting and waiting for the download to finish, I have a question. You mention that Active Perl is needed for a kernel rebuild. (...) (24 years ago, 29-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  winlegos needed
 
I am in desperate need of the winlegos installation file. I have lost my own, my installation is corrupt, and without a correct installation I can't work. Pretty please, someone. /Torkel (24 years ago, 29-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: debugging gcc or ld
 
I found the problem. gcc hosted on LinuxPPC uses unsigned chars by default, and one of the h8300 support files for gas assumes signed chars. The bug fix was easy, but rather than take a chance on other lurking signed/unsigned errors, I just forced (...) (24 years ago, 29-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  debugging gcc or ld
 
I'm trying to get started with legOS but I'm having some trouble getting things to link because I keep getting 'relocation truncated' errors. In order to determine if its ld or gcc that's at fault, could someone with a functional (...) (24 years ago, 29-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Differences between RCX 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0?
 
(...) From what I've gathered: 1.0 to 1.5 Removed the power adapter board. Less components on the board. 1.0 to 2.0 from what I gathered a slightly newer board with a 32k ROM instead of the 16K in the 1.0. (The 1.0 is designed to hold a 32k ROM. As (...)

  Tell your robot what to do!
 
I don't know if you could use this with Mindstorms or not (I would assume you could) but it sure sounds cool! It's a voice recognition module.... I wonder how hard it would be to assemble and use. It's $50 too.... I don't want to be the guinea (...) (24 years ago, 26-May-00, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Can you still use RCX's IR for collision detection?
 
I made robot using NQC that did this....pretty reliably too. The idea is you constantly send out messages, and when you get close to an object, there's a bit of feedback. This feedback is picked up by one of the light sensors, which is particularly (...) (24 years ago, 26-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Differences between RCX 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0?
 
I've been away from the Mindstorms scene for almost a year....got a bit behind! *grin* Matt (24 years ago, 26-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos, lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  Re: winlegos and sort
 
Oh never mind. I guess that's what you get for not paying attention to your path. It executed the wrong sort. Torkel Torkel Niklasson <torkel.niklasson@te...logic.com> wrote in message news:Fv4DJ7.Fx6@lugnet.com... (...) (24 years ago, 25-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  winlegos and sort
 
I'm having a problem recompiling legos firmware on windows NT. When I try, sort fails, for some reason, and that apparently corrupts the entire legos.srec, and the files that are needed to compile user programs. This is what it says... (...) (24 years ago, 25-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: GA in RCX
 
(...) I like the multiple robot idea. If each robot used a simulated annealing algorithm instead of a GA this would require less computation since it would be working on one chromosome instead of a population. Each robot could advertise its fitness (...) (24 years ago, 25-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: GA in RCX
 
(...) Yes. Therefore you might want to use the truncation selection, which allows you to have only 1 copy of the population at a time to save memory. It worked for us, we have a small GA running inside of the RCX. We evolved a program with simple (...) (24 years ago, 24-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: GA in RCX
 
(...) I've pondered it, though not actually done anything. The things to remember are that GAs need to do fitness testing, and the larger the population that you can do fitness tests on the better. On a big old PC, it's easy to do lots and lots of (...) (24 years ago, 23-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  RE: RTC
 
(...) There used to be such an option, but I can't seem to find it at the moment. Anyone else game? (...) Unfortunately, only if you have an older version of the mindstorms (version 1.0.) In version 1.5, Lego in it's infinite wisdom removed the (...) (24 years ago, 23-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  RE: RTC
 
(...) Crap :) Our setup would have been a hot item at trade shows :) Can anyone give me some info on power conservation with legOS? Will legOS shut itself down after a certain period of time? Does a power adapter exist for the robot so I can plug it (...) (24 years ago, 23-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
