(...) Actually, something like this has been documented and done by Pedersen, Christensen, Rasmussen ("Prioritized Interrupts in LegOS").

Since I'm now fairly sure that i've got the timing taken care of I'm wondering if the power cycling that ds_handler does is somehow causing the problem? I thought I might take control of this stuff in my test code. I assume if I set the sensor for (...) (23 years ago, 5-Feb-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
