  Re: Help request : LegOS 2.5, demo/c++.cpp make failure
 
(...) Yes, that ist normal. :) With gcc 3.0.3, you get these errors with the c++ demos. I haven't fiddled with it to get rid of those.

I'm trying to install legOS 2.5 for the first time and I'm running into problems.

  RE: Joystick application for LegOS
 
You can still switch back and forth between legOS and NQC if you find the joystick control helpful. Another suggestion is to write a legOS program that runs all axis at intervals...if you just need it for testing. A final suggestion is to use the (...)

  Joystick application for LegOS
