My club children, age 11 to 14, just started to make a writer... This is different from what is in the Ferrari's book. The one we are attempting to build is to load the pen into the center of the construction. RCX is sitting on a mobile chassis. (...) (19 years ago, 26-Nov-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: use RCX with the lego set 4095
 
(...) That would require extensive redesign, as the 4095 unit also contains the motors in a compact unit... Philo BTW: imho 4095 is not worth buying (main unit is close to useless) unless you get it at a very low price! (19 years ago, 25-Nov-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  use RCX with the lego set 4095
 
I wonder if anyone has experience with this set. The description on the lego site is not clear enough for me to determine whether I can replace the body with the RCX... Thanks! ---...--- -------- Elizabeth (19 years ago, 24-Nov-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  brickOS on Mac OS X
 
Hello, I'm trying to get a recent brickOS (0.9.0) working on Mac OS X 10.4.3. I have an RCX 2.0 with the USB tower. I have a cross-compiler (gcc 3.2.2) that apparently works, and using the firmware download program included with lejOS (specially (...)

Hi everybody: I have installed and BrickOS 0.9.0 and Cygwin, since my machine uses Windows XP Home Edition. I have downloaded lnpd 0.9.0, but I have problems when installing this package.

  dllx problems, with lnpd 0.9.0

  Re: error in using brickOS under Bricx Command Center
 
(...) As I said before, I am able to use brickOS under cygwin. Does this mean that I have files required by brickOS? I guess you don't mean that I have to run the two commands: make realclean make (Of course I did in vain.) Je-Young Choi (19 years ago, 19-Oct-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
