So, I have a quick question: has anyone built egcs 1.1.1 or 1.1.2 with gcc 2.9.5? I'm getting some very weird errors when I try to build the cross compiler- basically, it appears that the parser is trying to read certain comments as assembly (...)

Hello, one of my beautiful new rotation sensors was jammed right out of the box. I built a robot to try out dynamic equilibrum, i.e., balancing a weighted stick, only to notice that my construction didn't turn at all because of sensor friction. (...)

(...) Now I know what makes the RCX freeze: On my RCX , the variable dkey_multi, which stores the status of the keys, always has the first bit (0x1) set. This causes the debounce loop at boot up to hang, because it thinks that the On-Off key is (...) (25 years ago, 17-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

My own half-hearted attempts built binutils (a beta version which might not have actually worked anyway) but never made (...) (25 years ago, 16-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

Hi We are a couple of 4th year Computer Science students who have been given the enviable task of programming a set of 6 RCX's to do something "impressive" (please forward any cool ideas for a project to michael.yates@studen...le.edu.au) anyhow in (...)

Hi Luis, i got thes egcs-1.1.2 sources today and rebuilt the cross-compiler and legOS and -- it works now. Thanks a lot for your help !! Could you perhaps give me a starting point to get some understanding of how legOS works internally ? (25 years ago, 16-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) A quick grep of the sources show that only a few things (other than lnp, which depends very heavily on interrupts) need the interrupts- task visualization and sound appear to be the two victims. If you don't need these and don't want to worry (...) (25 years ago, 15-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
