This is a whole bunch of IR questions, which come from my first serious fooling around with the IR. Since some of these are legOS or Linux specific, I've cross-posted- I hope no one is too offended. 1) Despite putting the bot in an infinite while (...)

(...) I'm sorry it took so long to reply, Phil, but as a non-windows user, well, I didn't see much in the initial messages that led me to think I could help. From what I've seen, this is the cause of the error- the two Makefiles (Makefile and (...) (25 years ago, 22-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) Markus, It might be a good idea to carefully review the LEGO Group's policies on domain names, possibly even retaining an attornery if you are serious, or contacting TLG attorneys with specific questions. Note that TLG's "Fair Play" page (URL) (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hi Kekoa, Could you post your working IR .srec code or email me if possible? I have tried the examples with the LegOS read sensor routines and I still get the same results. i.e. it works at about 2mm from the unit but fails after more than 5mm. I (...)

Well, for at least one year (possibly two) I can keep binaries and other large items on arthurdent (which is where the HOWTO and my Debian binaries are kept.) Let me know if you want space... -Luis (...) ###...### Profanity is the one language that (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) ??? Are you sure: I just looked, and they appear to redirect to some other site ((URL) who give you 20 MB and register you at InterNIC - but here's the catch: InterNIC will bill you! There's also a 1.2 MB file size limit (which may or may not (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hello, sorry for being out of touch. I just stumbled across a service called www.registernic.net. Apparently, they are handing out .com, .org and .net domains and 6MB of webspace free for two years. They register in your name, and they don't even (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Thanks for all of your help. I am surprised also, I thought alot of others were successfully using legOS and thought there would be someone who had gone through this. I checked as you said, and c, c++ and mint are in the legOS.0.1.7 lib directory, (...) (25 years ago, 21-Jun-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

In addition to what I mentioned in the previous message, I also set the sensor input port to active. Setting it to passive also works, in which case the ambient light level seems to be around 480-495, and the sensor aimed directly at the IR port (...)
