    The nice thing about Robot Sumo is that there is a fair number of local competions closely patterned after the original .jp Robot Sumo and one of the robot classes is autonomous.

    Here it is.

    Was the error something about an "event" variable? They changed that in the fs code to like global_event.

    I made up a patch based on 2.2.14pre18. It applies and compiles cleanly with this final 2.2.14. I took out some of the kdb stuff, because well, I don't care about debugging it. :) I guess the usual caveats when not dealing with the real author of something like this apply. But I've been up for almost three hours now with it (and several weeks in the 14pre kernels), and all filesystems are working just peachy.

  5. Nah, Only some assembly required by Bryan+Andersen · · Score: 1 · on Geek Christmas Ideas
    Lego Mindstorms is only some assembly required. I'm personally working on the "all assembly required" version of robotics. For a beginner, Lego Mindstorms is great. I'm even considering getting a set or two for myself. For some of us nuts it's a little low in the programibility and speed area.

    Others who are doing robotics can be found via searches, or by following the links on most robotics clubs pages. I'm directly involved with Twin Cities Robotics. There are a bunch of others around the country, Portland Area Robotics (PARTS), Seattle Robotics Society (SRS), Triangle Amateur Robotics, Dallas Personal Robotics Group, Central Illinois Robot Club, Home Brew Robotics, and San Francisco Robotics Society of America to name a few.
