RCX Error

analogy
analogy over 10 years ago

Althought it seems like a licensing error, I really don't know what wxactly is the reason for that :

    The lmstat was a UNIX command not a SKILL command, and so it has to be entered in a UNIX terminal. I mistakenly assumed that was obvious. The use model for QRC is essentially the same as for Assura RCX, so there is no good reason to keep using technology that has been obsolete for about 10 years and hasn't had any of the fixes in the intervening years... you just need to have a (recent) EXT release installed and in your path.
