(...) The interface is specifically datagram only. Dunno about packet reassembly; I doubt it as the philosophy is minimalism. The main advantage I see in it is the ability to change the degree of checking it does on your behalf to ensure packets (...) (25 years ago, 20-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) I suppose we could ask for help also to non-legos owners of RCX and rotation sensors. What if any of us posts a message in the robotics newsgroup asking for some reads of rotation sensors? Raw values can be read with the sandard firmware too (...) (25 years ago, 20-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) Exactly. I don't have rotation sensors, either. I think these values were originally gathered from Michael Nielsen's sensors. What's the current status? Is there a patch working for everybody, or do we need some calibration work? It would be (...) (25 years ago, 20-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) rom_reset() does the trick, you'll need to #include "rom/system.h". I'm not sure wheter this is safe when multitasking. (25 years ago, 20-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Thanks to Dave and Joel. I looked quickly at those sites, and there are just what I need. I am off to have a closer look now. I realized that Linux isn't required to program with LegOS, but there are other programs I am looking at using as well. (...) (25 years ago, 20-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hey everyone. I'd like to announce that I've posted to the web a basic version of a HOWTO for LegOS. If everyone has a chance, please take a look at it and let me know what you think. In particular, take a look at the about the HOWTO section, as it (...) (25 years ago, 19-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) It wouldn't, though. First it gets the maximum of the given value or RANGE_SIZE. That is done to prevent a similar overflow at the low end, even though, with current values, that won't happen. Then, that value is compared against the safe (...) (25 years ago, 19-Apr-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
