Hi, everyone! On behalf of Paolo Masetti and myself, and the rest of the legOS crew, I'd like to announce the release of legOS version 0.2.4. This is the first release in many months, and so it has lots of great goodies. *Vastly improved stability (...) (24 years ago, 28-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos, lugnet.robotics)

(...) Ahhh, this is a hint why it shows up now. The additional delay in the dsensor code shifts the duty cycle of the sensor down just a little bit, so it can't operate anymore.

OK, so I had forgotten that for whatever reason legOS rotation sensors are very, very sensitive to dying batteries.
