How about LegOS & IR "long range"?

Well.

It's a bit strange that under LegOS you "must" work only in "near"/"short
range" mode. So I've modified my kernel to work always in "far" or "long
range" mode (that works with near too)...

Now I'm able to upload kernel and .lx to my RCX placed far away from IR
Tower... I like it... :-)

Here are the patch to lnp-logical.c. In the function lnp_logical_init(),
insert the lines with a "+" before, just in the middle of other lines as
indicated:

--- cut
  PORT5_DDR = *(char *)0xfd84 = 4;       // init p5ddr, for now

+  // IR Range
+  lnp_logical_range(1);

  // IRQ handler setup
--- cut

That's all.

Enjoy! :-)

Bye,
     Paolo.

P.S.: Do not forget the new dll.exe also patched by John Lorenz, It's a
must... Same patches I was working to... :-)
