Wow! I am so glad this worked. I entered a bug for the program.c changes earlier today (on sourceforge) and will enter one for the readme change. (However, we could solve the problem by updating dll as well... to find the parameter in any location) (...) (22 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) Fine to hear you are up and running. (...) No, I don't think so. In fact, using dll with the right parameters does the trick. Sorting out what you have written, I think you downloaded all your programs to slot 0, your old program was deleted (...) (22 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

I tried doing "dll -pX prog.lx" instead of "dll prog.lx -pX" and it works! Thanks. It would be good if Joe Wooley's alteration to program.c could be included in the next version of legOS because it does the trick with the "keeping alive" and "error (...)

Well, I am sorry to say that I don't have a solution for that problem. I haven't experienced this before. I am glad to hear that the program download doesn't fail anymore; and I will request that 0.2.6 contains a similar fix. Ok, another suggestion: (...)

I don’t know if it makes any difference, but I always put the destination before the name of the program. Ex: “dll -p1 hello.lx” Steve (...) (22 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Sorry, no. That's the one difference; it no longer says error deleting program and I don't get any errors when downloading to the RCX. I always use firmdl3 -s because using just firmdl3 on its own never works for me. I still have the problem that (...) (22 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

After making the change, do you still get "Error deleting program"? or other errors while downloading the program? Your assumption is correct, it will only switch to a program slot if there is a valid program there. I had problems sending programs (...) (22 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

I just tried this and it has no effect. By the way, I'm using Cygwin B20 under Windows 98 with a com port IR thing, and LegOS 0.2.5. The same thing happened using WinLegOS and 0.2.3. Pressing the PRGM key has no effect in any situation - I assume it (...) (22 years ago, 7-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

I had similar problems when using legOS with CONF_TM defined in boot/config.h What I found was that the lnp handler was not getting enough processing time and was missing some data at times. Try the following fix and let me know if it helps. If so, (...) (22 years ago, 7-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

I quote from the original readme: "Type "dll demo/helloworld.lx". If all is well, it should be automatically relocated and transmitted to program slot 0. Press the RUN key to run. The program stops automatically. Type "dll demo/rover.c -p1" to (...) (22 years ago, 7-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
