Hi all. I've uploaded Chris Aquila's remote control patch to Sourceforge. I've included a README, and a user-space module to make using it a bit easier. Just look under the patches section in the legOS project. Regards, ROSCO (24 years ago, 25-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

(...) of (...) The call looks fine, but as Bernado said, you have to make sure that higher priority tasks relinquish control regularly.

Hi, I am trying to run three different tasks, with the "execi" command. When all of the have the same priority=10, everything works ok. When I change the priority in one of them priority=11 or 12, then everything seems to go much slower, and (...) (24 years ago, 21-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

If you need motors, check out toys. They are clearing out their stock (I've heard April they're outa-here) and everything is on sale. The 8735 Technic motor kit was 24.?? last time I looked.

(...) In C you should call execi() like this: execi(controlThread, 0, NULL, 2, DEFAULT_STACK_SIZE); /* Removed `&' */ since a function is like an array name: it is an address. Probably the same applies to C++. bye Bernardo (24 years ago, 18-Feb-01, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
