  Re: Preserving old-school Mindstorms resources
 
A very useful site is the cs university page here: (URL) of useful tutorials and instructions. It would be unhelpful to have it disappear. All of the stuff at the legos/brickos sourceforge pages, however a backup probably isn't needed of these. A (...) (15 years ago, 18-Apr-09, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Preserving old-school Mindstorms resources
 
(...) Nice to see a few of us share the interest. :-) The best I can offer for a list of patches is what I listed in the post here [ (URL) ], along with Carl's follow-up post. That list was culled from links I've collected over the years. As was (...) (15 years ago, 14-Apr-09, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Preserving old-school Mindstorms resources
 
After surfing through many sites, and (sadly) even more 404s I have been unable to find a definitive list of gcc, binutils, BrickOS etc. versions and patches that I should and could be using. Presumably everybody here has up to date versions of all (...) (15 years ago, 13-Apr-09, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Preserving old-school Mindstorms resources

Hi, (...) I had worked to assimilate those patches prior to the second version of the performance patch being posted, so I'm glad to hear that it also works well. (...)

Hello, 2009/3/31 Carl Troein <carl@thep.lu.se>: (...) For some unknown reason the address suddenly pointed to the old server again which was shutdown in December last year.

For those interested, I have posted a patch to SourceForge for NQC at (URL) . This patch includes several changes, most of which are related to Linux, though portions may be of use to other platforms. * Removed the dependency of (...) (15 years ago, 11-Mar-09, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)
 
  BrickOS Patches and Development
 
Greetings, This is a follow up to earlier postings discussing the development status of BrickOS. While the Sourceforge project has not had much activity of late, I've come across various modifications that, unfortunately, have never made it (...)

  BricxCC & NBC/NXC collaboration
 
I finally got around to uploading all the BricxCC and NBC/NXC source code to an SVN repository on the BricxCC project page on sourceforge.net. Now all my code changes are done via my local checkout from that repository and changes are checked in as (...)

  Re: NQC for Linux/ASUS eeePC
 
(...) What I said had less to do with programming as it had to do with understanding your new Linux-based PC. Do you know how to use Linux from a command prompt? Can you open a terminal window on your eeePC and type "gcc" and see what happens? I (...) (15 years ago, 2-Feb-09, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.nqc)

  Re: Development status
 
(...) I think we need to stick with 2.16.1, I don't know whether porting brickos to elf is really worth the trouble. Newer gcc versions would be nice, indeed, and brickos also builds fine with (some of?) these, but I never actually got it to run on (...) (15 years ago, 31-Jan-09, to lugnet.robotics.rcx.legos)
 
  Re: Development status
 
Hi all, This is great to see there's still some interest.

  Re: Development status
 
(...) From what I can tell, support for h8300-hitachi-hms(/coff) was dropped from binutils after 2.16.1. I have no real idea how much work it would take to port brickOS (plus brickemu, preferably) over to elf, but I suspect that it'd be a lot. (...)

  Re: Robolab and Spybotics
 
(...) I don't know for certain but I would be a bit surprised if Robolab works with the Spybot bricks. There would have to have been a new release with modifications specifically made to support the Spybot. Searching these newsgroups suggests that (...)
