  Re: light sensor problem?
 
(...) I remember wondering what port 6 bit 3 did and so I think I tried setting it on and off and not noticing anything broken either way. Maybe I didn't test enough though. Somebody might want to try repeating the experiment. Some extra evidence is (...) (24 years ago, 26-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: light sensor problem?
 
(...) I supposed so, but only to get a "fast scaling"? (...) I can "rescale" those values by theoretical calculation and maintain >>7 or make the right conversion (0-100). Now I've done the right scaling (ready to commit), but I sincerely think that (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  RE: light sensor problem?
 
(...) And I'll add the reminder (for all the newbies) that without Kekoa's efforts in doing the low-level documentation, we would not be where we are today.... Thanks again, Kekoa....... As a side note, I wonder how the power to the LCD controller (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: light sensor problem?
 
(...) I personally forget the numbers of the lugnet posts. The gist is that the firmware and LegOS were, at the time, different in a critical way. I don't know the current status of LegOS. At the time, LegOS cycled through the 4 A/D sensors, reading (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
This is the whole directory command dump. These errors are half-corrected if I specify ../include/*.h in the include# line. Then I get errors about not being able to find other *.h's that the originals included. Makefile:41: .depend: No such file or (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
Oops. When I copied it, that statement got left out, and I put it bck in in the incoorect place. The original version of the code had the return in the outside loop. I know it is this way because I could turn the rotation sensor slowly, and see the (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Persistent globals
 
(...) Wonderful! (Oh, and good morning, Eddie ;) I'm putting some stuff into the HOWTO as we speak- I'll mention that.

  Re: Persistent globals
 
(...) I just committed a header file persistent.h with comment on how to use __persistent in your files. I also updated genlds.c to move the persistent data to the right place. Eddie C. Dost ecd@skynet.be (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
(...) Could you please post the compile command the makefile generates to the list, including the error? Like in: ecd@reset:~/lego/min...egOS/demo> make /usr/local/bin/h8300...hi-hms-gcc -O2 -fno-builtin -fomit-frame-pointer -Wall (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
(...) Yes. It will only display two counter readings, then stop! See the "return 0;" statement. It is inside the while (1) loop. Take it out of the loop, and I am shure this one will also work. At least with 0.2.4 it does. (...) Here the return (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Persistent globals
 
(...) No. You can not easily see the difference between static and non static data in the linker scripts to decide into which section to put the data. I would recomment a header file "persistent.h" and some documentation about that. We could modify (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
I am using Linux. It is a minimalistic setup, but I have downloaded all of the extra stff that needs to be used for legOS. Before this error happens, legOS.srec is built, which I did not know before. Now I get errors involving the include files in (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
(...) Hmm. DJGPP or Cygwin? I thought it was cygwin, but that sounds like a DJGPP problem. (...) Again, DJGPP or Cygwin? Thanks, Andy- I'm sorry to bug you, but I'd really hate to be responsible for putting out something that I know is broken. Luis (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
I downloaded the tarball, and tried to compile it. when I an in /boot, it tries to do a genlds, and exits with an error. When I try to run genlds, it says Segmentation Error(or fault, I can't remember). I think the only reason that I can use 0.2.3 (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
Ack! You are still having problems with 0.2.4? I thought your problem was with the compiler, and not legOS? <flips through old Andy Gombos posts on lugnet> Is this still the merge-map problem? I figured out the situation, and fixed it in CVS. Sorry (...) (24 years ago, 25-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
I figured you would be glad that I was not running 0.2.4. I cannot get it to compile correctly, so I use 0.2.3 instead. The two full programs are below, in case you wanted to see them in full.

  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
(...) phew :) Had me scared there for a while. I'll probably still take a look at it later- I just didn't want to have caused a bug so soon after starting to apply patches.

  Re: Rotation Sensor Values
 
Hee, Hee. It was 0.2.3, not 0.2.4. Here is the code snippet that setup and read the values. The current(working) code takes out the refresh, and changes the delay to msleep. ds_active(&SENSOR_2); ds_rotation_on(&SENSOR_2); (...) (24 years ago, 24-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Persistent globals
 
(...) Do you think that is possible to change the behavier of legOS loading to obtain the expected behavier for static data without the trick?
