It depends on what you want the RNG for. If all you (...) (25 years ago, 14-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| (...) Probably a dumb question, but how do I link in another copy of libc, besides the hacked-down one already present in legOS? I can't just copy the one on top of the other, and the linker should just link in the first it finds, correct? At any (...) (25 years ago, 14-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| (...) Hi, Luis Villa - author of HOWTO has some that he will soon include into the HOWTO. If you need just random 16 bit integer, you can use for example this random = 25173*previous + 13849; but I don't know how good it is; start with an arbitrary (...)

| Well, neither the latest release of egcs nor the latest binutils 2.9.1 seems to do it. Apparently, though, the beta binutils (2.9.4, use at your own risk, blah, blah, blah) works. The gcc compilation is now crashing in a different location. Using my (...) (25 years ago, 9-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| Thanks for the help, Matt. solaris2.7 was correctly selected as the host by conf.guess, so that is not the problem. I would have no authority to apply any patches, even if I could find them, so I'm building egcs-1.1.2 instead. We'll see how that (...) (25 years ago, 9-Jul-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
