  Mindstorms firmware
 
OK... Really DUMB question but I have to give my borrowed RCX back and buy my own so I went to remove legOS from my mates RCX to give it back and guess what... it won't go! :( I looked in the HOWTO and it says hold down Prgm and press the on.off (...)

  Re: DJGPP firmdl
 
Try setting the environment variable RCXTTY (or RCX_TTY, I'm not sure) to your device name (e.g. RCXTTY=/dev/ttyS1; export RCXTTY). (...) (24 years ago, 1-Aug-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  DJGPP firmdl
 
I've been able to build all the tools under DJGPP, unfortunately, firmdl3.exe doesn't accept anything as a valid serial port name. I've tried "com1", "/dev/com1", /dev/ttyS0", etc, but nothing works. The message is either "not a tty" or "no such (...) (24 years ago, 1-Aug-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: questions, comments, and suggestions
 
(...) RCX_COMPILER is an internal gcc/egcs define, when patched correctly to support RCX interrupts. This is still used and useful, as it saves only the required registers, unlike the HANDLER_WRAPPER macro, which saves all volatile registers. (...) (...)

  Re: dont't fear the reaper
 
(...) This change is correct, although it will not work by itself. Using only this all memory will be freed when the RCX is powered off, including program memory. To work correctly another change to tm.c is necessary, so memory allocated by kernel (...) (24 years ago, 1-Aug-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  dont't fear the reaper
 
I've tried to test the maximum memory allocation possible in legOS. For that, I wrote the following test program: #include <conio.h> #include <unistd.h> #include <stdlib.h> int main( int argc, char **argv ) { int i; char *cp; i = 1; while( ( cp = (...)

  questions, comments, and suggestions
 
Hello, I'm just rooting through the kernel code, and have a few questions: [note: after actually writing this, there not all questions, more comments, or suggestions. And there aren't just a few of them. Good luck getting through it! ;-) ] *) What (...) (24 years ago, 31-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Persistent globals
 
(...) Hi again! I have found that this works with scalar variables. However, I need to make an array persistent. More specifically, I have a 100x100 matrix containing a population for use with genetic programming and I need to be able to keep this (...) (24 years ago, 31-Jul-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
