I've been having some trouble with the 0.2.6.10 brickos kernel compiled with gcc 3.3.2. Whenever I try to use the dsound_play or sound_system functions, the kernel crashes immediately. In some cases, the RCX really goes haywire and motors start (...) (21 years ago, 31-Oct-03, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
