| | Notes on WinNT and legOS 0.2.2
|
| No, I don't have it working yet. However, I've made progress, and I thought my experience might be helpful to others who are more savvy with the GNU tools than I am. - I did get everything to compile. As Luis suggested, the -nostdinc flag takes care (...) (25 years ago, 18-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
| | | | compiling legOS
|
| Hi all, I think we have finally gotten a cross compiler built for Solaris. I am still not 100% sure. I will not say that we have until I have seen a robot driving around the table which has a program written in legOS and downloaded in it. However at (...)

| Hmm. I'm using 2.95.2 and getting all these weird errors. Oh well- I'll report more later. -Luis (...) ###...### Profanity is the one language that all programmers understand. -Anonymous ###...### (25 years ago, 18-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| (...) Do you mean gcc 2.95.x ? If so, yes, i did it 2 days ago. The native compiler on my linux box (kernel 2.2.13, glibc 2.0 ) is a self compiled gcc 2.95.1. The cross compiler egcs-1.1.2 for h8300 built without problems on this machine, and i was (...) (25 years ago, 18-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
| | | | argh
|
| So, I have a quick question: has anyone built egcs 1.1.1 or 1.1.2 with gcc 2.9.5? I'm getting some very weird errors when I try to build the cross compiler- basically, it appears that the parser is trying to read certain comments as assembly (...)

| | | | rotation sensors
|
| Hello, one of my beautiful new rotation sensors was jammed right out of the box. I built a robot to try out dynamic equilibrum, i.e., balancing a weighted stick, only to notice that my construction didn't turn at all because of sensor friction. (...)

| | | | dkey_multi (was: Kernel dies after loading)
|
| (...) Now I know what makes the RCX freeze: On my RCX , the variable dkey_multi, which stores the status of the keys, always has the first bit (0x1) set. This causes the debounce loop at boot up to hang, because it thinks that the On-Off key is (...) (25 years ago, 17-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| (...) I have to comment here that the O'Reilly "The Unofficial Guide to LEGO® MINDSTORMS™ Robots" (By Jonathan B. Knudsen, 1st Edition October 1999, 1-56592- 692-7, Order Number: 6927, 266 pages, $24.95) is one of the best "tech" books I've read in (...) (25 years ago, 16-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| Look what I got in the mail today: two rotation sensors, courtesy of O'Reilly. Thanks, guys! Now to fix that driver for good... Markus. (25 years ago, 16-Nov-99, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
