  pre-releases brickos-0.9.0/lnpd-0.9.0 avail. for testing/feedback
 
It's a new year and now you have a new version of brickOS. Yes, you read that right... a new version and a first version of lnpd for Linux that works with this new version of BrickOS. Along with this lnpd support, this BrickOS now supports USB IR (...) (20 years ago, 18-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Simulink Compilation
 
Dear BrickOS users We would like to start using Simulink + Realtime Workshop (Mathsoft)to compile and download code to the RCX. I have successfully completed the installtion procedure for BrickOS - but noticed that the setup code provided by (...) (20 years ago, 17-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: LNPd keeps sending TX_FAILURE
 
(...) hmmm, bad. I never did much wich lnp, but it worked on my machine. (...) I hope so :) Reading the problem description in your first posting gives me a knot in my brain. Next possible problem is a problem with the rights for your /dev/ttySx. If (...) (20 years ago, 8-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: LNPd keeps sending TX_FAILURE
 
(...) I tried the PARENB | PARODD fix. All it did was prevent the PC from receiving anything from the RCX, and it still didn't send anything. Is there anything I missed? (20 years ago, 7-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: LNPd keeps sending TX_FAILURE
 
(...) Keep in mind that lnpd out of the box does _not_ work with brickOS out of the box! This item was discussed in this forum several times, you should search for lnpd in older postings. The next version of brickOS will be accompanied by an updated (...) (20 years ago, 7-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: LNPd keeps sending TX_FAILURE
 
I don't use LNPd or BrickOS so I don't know if this will work. It makes all sorts of problems go away when using the RCX ROM message handling routines, I don't know how much of the ROM routines are used by LNPd or whether, if it doesn't, it has (...)

  LNPd keeps sending TX_FAILURE
 
I'm running LNPd on Gentoo Linux 2.6.7. Everything seems to work fine except transmitting messages to the RCX. The lnptest application that comes with LNPd keeps reporting a Collision every time it tries to transmit something. It does however (...) (20 years ago, 7-Jan-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos, FTX)
 
  crosscompiler does not compile arrays of objects
 
Hello! I made a cross-compiler with the sources of gcc-3.4.2 and tried to compile this: Behavior a(); Behavior b() Behavior behaviors[] = {a,b}; ... Make fails with the error message: conversion from Behavior()() to non-scalar type Behavior (...) (20 years ago, 30-Dec-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  RE: brickOS port to FreeBSD
 
John, I'm interested in how you got the USB tower working... I've got a Tcl package that talks to the LEGO USB tower driver under Windows, but nothing for FreeBSD yet. I'm willing to share the Tcl script with you if I ever get the tower working (...) (20 years ago, 23-Dec-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Errors while installing brickOS 0.2.6.10
 
(...) These two installers offer the brickOS beginner an extremely easy way to get Cygwin and the necessary cross compilers installed on a Win32 system as well as all the brickOS files (and LeJOS files also). If you download and run these two (...) (20 years ago, 28-Dec-04, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: brickOS port to FreeBSD
 
Hi Jarod, (...) Ok, you can get it from ftp://ftp2.za.freebs...d-usb.diff I haven't been able to get the fast mode to work yet. I guess firmdl needs something different from NQC because it do work in NQC. I have tried to make the changes so that (...) (20 years ago, 27-Dec-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Errors while installing brickOS 0.2.6.10
 
(...) Sorry for the late reply! I am wondering if the two installers are required, and what they are for. (20 years ago, 27-Dec-04, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.robotics.rcx, lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: brickOS port to FreeBSD

  Re: brickOS port to FreeBSD
 
(...) Thanks, I'm up and running using binutils-2.15, gcc-3.4-20041217 and your gcc-3.3 patch to the cvs version of brickOS. I also have the USB Tower working. Would the brickOS guys be interested in FreeBSD patches to firmdl and dll? John (20 years ago, 23-Dec-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

  Re: Wire communication
 
A few questions and another answer: I don’t have my nqc ref to hand, but does the one external output on the cybermaster support float? I also have the suspicion that a more efficient (fewer ports tied up) solution might be achieved by wiring two (...) (20 years ago, 14-Dec-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: brickOS port to FreeBSD
 
(...) I think the latest official gcc-binaries for brickOS are still 2.95.x. However, I have binutils-2.15 and gcc-3.4.0 running under linux and had only minor problems. Make sure you compile gcc without the stdc++ libraries or just ignore the (...) (20 years ago, 9-Dec-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Wire communication
 
(...) I think all you really need to do is switch the motor port between "float" and "brake". That's the same as opening and closing a touch sensor. I've used that for simple signals, and it seems to work fine, but I haven't tried more complex (...) (20 years ago, 9-Dec-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Wire communication
 
Hello, I am currently trying to implement a communication protocol between two bricks using just one of the copper wire given with the brick. The protocol is based on manchester encoding, using a well-timed alternation of up and low signals. My (...) (20 years ago, 9-Dec-04, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
