We patched our code with the interrupt related patch, and the linker script patch, and although we did not see 8.2 displayed on the controller for the battery voltage our code refused to load and run on the 2006 controller. Retrofitted to the 2005 controller our custom code loaded and ran without any problems.

Depending on your use of interrupts and timers, you may, or may not see problems continue after patching your libraries and linker script. Several teams at the San Jose regional remained dis-functional after patching.

The only sure cure seems to be a 2005 controller upgraded to V12 master code. The upgrade is required and checked by the technical inspectors. If you are having problems with the 2006 controller, I would like to suggest that you use a fix-it window to retrofit your custom code to the 2005 controller, squeezing it to fit if required, so that it is ready to go if you need it. Don't forget to have a copy of the V12 master code to load into your controller.

Have fun, and don't forget that it all about fun and nothing else...
