After making the change, do you still get "Error deleting program"? or other
errors while downloading the program?
Your assumption is correct, it will only switch to a program slot if there
is a valid program there.
I had problems sending programs using dll and using firmdl3 for a short
period... I don't know why. However, using firmdl3 -s (for slow) once
fixed it. I think it was a port issue on the PC side. It has worked fine
since.

| Sorry, no. That's the one difference; it no longer says error deleting program and I don't get any errors when downloading to the RCX. I always use firmdl3 -s because using just firmdl3 on its own never works for me. I still have the problem that (...) (25 years ago, 8-Apr-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
