You can install a slightly old version of brickOS and leJOS with these installers as well. Then (...) (19 years ago, 13-Apr-05, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)

| As I was poking around in the BrickOS kernel, it occurred to me that using the sys_time variable isn't entirely safe. Since sys_time is 32-bits and the processor can only read 16-bits at a time into a register, there is a period of time between the (...) (22 years ago, 12-Dec-02, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
