  dll 0.2.3 fails on SGI
 
Hello all, My first time on this list... I've been trying to get LegOS running in my recently aquired RCX 1.0. I created an egcs cross-compiler for Solaris. I used this to compile the kernel. The IR tower is connected to an SGI (an O^2 running IRIX (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: LegOS on LinuxPPC
 
(...) Ah, excellent. I saw this post when you posted it, but didn't think about it much at the time. I'll give this a shot and report back. Thanks very much. -- "Do not go gentle into that good night. Rage, rage against the dying of the light." - (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: LegOS on LinuxPPC
 
In article (...) I have had better luck with egcs-1.1.2 rather than gcc 2.95.2. I've heard that there's a problem with the way gcc 2.95.2 generates code for memcpy. I've also heard that the fix is to use an assembly version of memcpy instead of (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  LinuxPPC gcc errors
 
Ok, I have some error messages here. I'm following the exact instructions in the HOWTO, except for using gcc 2.95.2 instead of egcs 1.1.2. I recall trying egcs with similar results. The make proceeds fine for a while. Then I get this message, and (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  LegOS on LinuxPPC
 
I recall somebody writing to this list about a problem with LegOS under LinuxPPC, and the message seemed to imply that things were mostly happy. I can't make the compiler compile. I'm using gcc 2.95.2. The make proceeds for a good while, then I get (...) (24 years ago, 10-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  compiling
 
I am new to this message board so I am sorry if this topic has already been covered. I have been tring to make, but have been unsuccessful. The OS that I am currently trying to use is legOS 2.3. I keep recieving the error message: h8300-hms-gcc.exe: (...) (24 years ago, 6-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: legOS battery life code
 
Sorry! I forgot to post the code. Here it is: #include <dsensor.h> #include <dlcd.h> #include <conio.h> int get_battery_mv() { long b; int mv; b = BATTERY; b = ds_scale(b) * 0xABD4L; mv = b / 0x618L; return mv; } int main(int ac, char **av) { int b; (...)

  legOS battery life code
 
Hello, I recently received some code in the mail that when compiled and uploaded to the RCX is supposed to give you the battery life. But when I go to compile it, legOS/util/makelx gives me the following error message: single byte different at (...) (24 years ago, 5-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: rotation sensor problem, again...
 
I had the same problem and I solved it with a msleep(50). msleep(10) is not enough. (...) (24 years ago, 3-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: battery life indicator
 
if((BATTERY/0x0016)<700) dlcd_show(LCD_BATTERY_X); I always put this line on my programs. BATTERY/0x0016 gives the value in V*100 of all batteries open circuit voltage. <700 is the limit for rotation sensors to work (all the other sensors have (...)

  Re: interrupts for buttons
 
Sorry about the long delay, I've been away. Demo.c is inaccessable because it was written for 0.1.7 and I've not yet had the time to update it. Unfortunately, this is going to be a semi-major task and so will probably be one of the last things to (...) (24 years ago, 2-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: java/RCX combo
 
I'm currently trying to recreate the JavaOne Mindstorms demo which Sun used in 1999 to show off its Jini(tm) capabilities. Will let you know once I succeed - at the moment the problems are more related to Java(tm) than anything else. -thomas (24 years ago, 28-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos, lugnet.robotics.rcx.java)
 
  Re: Making LegOS under Win98
 
Hi All I was wondering if anyone has some sample LNP applications posted anywhere, or if there is any sample code and/or docs online. I'm having abi tof difficulty diving into it, so to speak ;-) Colin Ryan (24 years ago, 28-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  interrupts for buttons
 
I'm trying to connect the Run button to an "event function" so that I can shut down my system nice and clean instead of the evil kill that is happening right now. It seems I can't access demo.c that is in the HOWTO, so I'm not sure how I'd do this. (...) (24 years ago, 27-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: memory leak in string handling
 
And the problem is solved. Perhaps my pains can be used for something good anyway. Perhaps the people who suggested their beautiful strcat-functions can have (at least the prettiest one) them included in a future release. And if you're wondering how (...)

  Re: memory leak in string handling
 
Thank you everyone who helped out. The strcat function works like a charm. Unfortunately, the memory leak is still there. I'm beginning to think it might be that the strings are never deallocated at all. I'm going to have to check so that the (...) (24 years ago, 26-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Making LegOS under Win98
 
I did not have the lnp.c file, so I copied it to the util/dll-src directory. It did not change anything. Then I downloaded and installed the CVS version. It still gave the same errors. This is exactly what errors were specified: (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Making LegOS under Win98
 
Hmm. OK, well, if you look in ../Makefile.user (which is included from demo/Makefile) on the very last line you'll see this: %.lx: %.ds1 %.ds2 $(MAKELX) $*.ds1 $*.ds2 $*.lx That is a rule to make all .lx files. So, the rule is there and should be (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Making LegOS under Win98
 
Andy- 3 Questions: 1) What version are you running? 2) Where/when did you get the file from? 3) Can I see the Makefile in question? (should be legOS/demo/Makefile, also legOS/Makefile.user) Neither or these have been changed in more than two months (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jun-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
