I've just released on legos.sourceforge.net my patches for LegOS.
I was waiting for some life signal from Marcus. In absence of those
signals, I assume that all is right... ;-)
Forgive me if I broke down something for Linux people, but if I didn't
commit the patches nobody can test them... :-)
Note that I've tagged previous release with "pre-PM-2000-05-01" label.
Some info about the patches:
- Conditional compile for Win32 (NT). Makefiles were modified to avoid
manual modification using Linux or Win32. Linux compile has to be checked
by someone that can compile the whole thing on it.
- Utils: new release for code under win32. Now you will be able to use full
speed with no problem at all on NT, Win9x, Win2k. Native code was
included for Win32 serial support. Got rid of "unlock firmware" problems
too.
- firmdl3 and dll now are more user friendly.
- New option in kernel & in dll to set RCX in near/far mode. IR near/far
is reflected by IR indicator on lcd.
- New option in dll to specify tty.
- New option in dll to specify direct execute of the program just
downloaded.
- Sensors reading routine is now working... The old one was unable to read
stable values from sensors because of a missing delay. You will get stable
values with noise comparable to the original firmware. Needed to modify
rotating sensor code too (tested with my sensor).
- The battery low lcd indicator works! New battery.c module too for reading
battery mV.
- Moved some .h stuff for compatibility and modified makefiles according to.
- Now using multi-file version of firmdl3. I think that tt's easier to
maintain.
Note that directory structure is slightly modified to avoid problems with
lnp include files, so you need to take care of it.
To obtain the latest version you must get files via CVS (explained in
http://legos.sourceforge.net). You can also wait for sourceforge make the
tarball of sources in the schedule.
Enjoy!
Bye,
Paolo.

| I haven't spent much time analyzing this yet but here is the log. This seems familar somehow but I can't remember why. I checked my 0.2.3 area and it builds fine. I've been diff'ing makefiles but nothing leaps out so far. Note that I do make twice. (...) (25 years ago, 2-May-00, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
