  Re: memory left
 
(...) This little program scans the memory list and prints the amount of free memory: Eddie C. Dost ecd@skynet.be -- #include <unistd.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <sys/tm.h> #include <sys/mm.h> #include <sys/irq.h> #include <conio.h> extern (...)

  Re: memory left
 
I'm pretty much always interested in anything that anyone does with legOS.... makes me feel less lonely here ;) I've never heard of SDL before, but after looking through some of the docs, I'll admit it looks quite interesting. Please keep up us to (...) (24 years ago, 7-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: memory left
 
Thank you. The reason I'm asking is that we are doing our master's work/thesis on adapting the Telelogic (Swedish company) SDL tool to the legos platform. I guess the measurement of memory is not a critical part of this, unless there is none left, (...) (24 years ago, 7-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: memory left
 
Not to the best of my knowledge, but I'll take a look later this afternoon. If you need to create more memory, take a look at kernel/config.h, and start undefining features that you don't need. None of those will make a huge difference, but they are (...) (24 years ago, 7-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  memory left
 
Is there a way to check how much memory is still available on the RCX? Torkel (24 years ago, 7-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  where do I download lnpd+liblnp?
 
I can't seem to find anywhere to download the lnpd+liblnp tar ball. Does anyone know where it might be? Torkel (24 years ago, 6-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Power supply
 
(...) The 1.0 can accept a pretty standard DC convereter plug (look in the back). The 1.5 kits don't have this, the 2.0 kits will (supposedly.) I don't use this (which is dumb;) but many others have with good results. -Luis ---...--- "Going to (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Power supply
 
I'm sorry if this is off topic. I intend to have my legos program running for some considerable time on my rcx(1.0), and of course am worried about power consumption. Are there any upgrade kits I can get that allow for a dc power supply or perhaps (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: compiler question (second try)
 
In article (...) Building under LinuxPPC, I was able to get everything working with egcs 1.1.2. However, gcc 2.95 didn't work. I could get legOS.srec to build and download, it would work OK for turning the RCX on/off, but the first time I tried (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  compiler question (second try)
 
What is the newest version of gcc/egcs that anyone has used to create correct code? I'm looking into creating .rpm and .deb files for linux, and I'd like to build with the most up-to-date compiler that I know generates correct code. I have not (...)

  Re: serial number
 
Well, the purpose would be that it would save me the trouble of recompiling the kernel every time I have to download to a new RCX. I might end up with as much as 8 of them. Other than that, I was just curios. Torkel Luis Villa <liv@duke.edu> wrote (...) (24 years ago, 31-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: serial number
 
As far as I know, there is no way to access it. Why? If you intend to use it for unique identification for networking purposes, you can go into the config files in legOS and change the network address there... Luis (...) ---...--- "Going to (...)

  serial number
 
There is a serial number printed on the RCX. Is it possible to access that serial number through the hardware, or is it only printed on the outside? Torkel (24 years ago, 31-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  legOS HOWTO announcement
 
After much delay and deliberation, there is now a very, very rough cut of the 0.2.x legOS HOWTO at legOS's sourceforge site. There is still a lot to be done- for example, it doesn't mention winlegOS yet, nor does it cover the new rotation sensor (...)

  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)
