I tried to build the Hitachi-H8 cross-compiler to be used for brickos-0.2.6.10.6 . Trying to build based on binutils-2.10.1. I'm trying to install this on Win-XP. First I installed cygwin when I afterwards faced problems to execute commands. Solved (...) (20 years ago, 23-Feb-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

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)
