  WinLNP usage in VC++
 
Hi. Can anyone who has used the WinLNP control please help me get started with it. I have been using LNP via my own PC-side code based on Manuel Cabido Lopes' RCX Talker application (thanks Manuel) , but now want to build a server application that (...)

  Re: Cygnus Installation troubles
 
I think I am running into this problem. How do I remove all traces of my previous Cygwin 0.2.3 WinLegOS installation so the djgpp can run cleanly? Dave (...) (24 years ago, 6-Aug-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  LNP Addressing Scheme
 
Hi All, I've been playing around with LNP's logical layer and now want to use the addressing layer to enable communication with specific destination hosts (and ports) for my project: (URL) having a difficulty though. I understand that by changing (...) (24 years ago, 5-Aug-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Mindstorm firmware C compiler for W95 platform ready for download.
 
I've downloaded the files and unzipped it and tried to compile the code in C:\QC\demo which contains all the C source codes. However, when I tried to compile the hello.C program, I encountered a problem. I entered "qc hello" in the directory and (...)

  Desperate need for help with lnpd
 
Hi! I have mentioned before in this forum that I and two friends are working on a six legged robot which is supposed to learn to walk using genetic algorithms. We are now nearly finished and yesterday we finally managed to program an IR protocol (...) (24 years ago, 3-Aug-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Getting the Windows LegOS 0.2.3 compiler package to compile 0.2.4
 
I have been using Rossz Vámos-Wentworth's LegOS 0.2.3 distribution for Windows and it works beautifully. I was wondering if anyone has had any luck getting the new 0.2.4 release to work under this Windows distribution of LegOS? I copied the entire (...)

  Re: Cygnus Installation troubles
 
tnx... finally got to borrow a clean machine and got it to work (0.2.4 really does do away with the need for perl)... yep, seems like mixing the two really did mess up my installation... chrís (...) (24 years ago, 2-Aug-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: dont't fear the reaper

  Multiple RCXs
 
In my latest and greatest idea I intend to run two RCXs together to control a fairly complicated arm. To do this I need to communicate with two RCXs from my PC (the program is actually going to be controlled from my PC). Now I haven't had much luck (...)

  Re: Mindstorms firmware
 
(...) I usually just pull out a battery for a second. Note that the RCX draws very little power when turned off, and thus can retain memory for a while even without any batteries (cacitance on the power supply rails hold the RAM for a while). A good (...) (24 years ago, 2-Aug-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: dont't fear the reaper
 
(...) You turned it off in between and by only having your mm.c patch zapped parts of legOS own memory. No program will survive an off/on with only your patch in 0.2.4. Eddie C. Dost ecd@skynet.be (24 years ago, 1-Aug-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: dont't fear the reaper
 
Michael and co.: If you want to do this type of testing, but don't want to mess with CVS, sourceforge automatically creates daily tarballs of the CVS tree, so that you can get a nearly completely up-to-date version of legOS from CVS without having (...)

  Re: dont't fear the reaper
 
(...) Actually, I'm using 0.2.4, last downloadable version. With this, the memory eating problem is solved with my stated patch. Might be, that the new version has the tm.c changes? (I just press "run" to stop my program, then "run" to start it (...) (24 years ago, 1-Aug-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Mindstorms firmware
 
(...) No idea why that wouldn't work, it always has for me. I hold down prgm and as soon as I hit on/off, there's a little beep and the thing shuts off. When I turn it back on, it's back to the regular stuff. Of course, you can always try taking out (...) (24 years ago, 1-Aug-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  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 (...)

  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. (...) (...)
