LegoUSB / News: Recent posts

As of the Linux Kernel 2.6.1 release, which came out today, the LegoUSB driver is available as part of the Linux kernel. We'll post details on building and using this later (it should be documented with the kernel too). Support for our driver has been integrated into NQC (http://www.baumfamily.com/nqc/) as of version 2.5 r2. Details are in the NQC release notes.

Our thanks especially to David and the other team members who made this release possible.

A new driver (well an old one reinstated) has been added to CVS and the current driver deprecated. The latest driver supports OHCI and UHCI as well as not infringing Lego Copyright (which was a problem with the other driver)

The driver supports Lejos and NQC currently with other plaftform support planned.

You can obtaine the driver and nqc patch from CVS.

As we move towards our first fully working release (based off of Bret Thaeler's fine work), I have started a new CVS module which contains what will be the new code base.

This module is LegoUSB and will contain all code - patches, modules, etc.

I am going to do the best I can on my own here as all the other maintainers no longer seem to have time.

Any developers able/willing to contribute please email me.... read more

I've started making a homepage, currently it contains a kernel diff against linux 2.4.14 with partially functional driver (receiving works).
