On a basic TouchPad:
1) put a ClickPad keypad
2) install OS 2.1
3) send and launch Nleash
4) install OS 1.1

On a CAS TouchPad:
1) install OS 2.1
2) send and launch Nleash
3) install OS 1.1
4) boot OS 1.1 with the TouchPad keypad
5) while the calculator is on, hot-swap the TouchPad keypad with a ClickPad keypad

I followed the instructions exactly but I get an endless reboot.


Have you been able to install OS 1.1?

If the endless reboot happened before that, it means that Nleash didn't work well.
Just use the maintenance menu to remove the OS, and try again.

If the endless reboot happened after installing OS 1.1, the problem comes from the keypad.
Which model are you using: basic or CAS TouchPad ?
With which keypad: ClickPad or TouchPad ?
I'm using a basic touchpad.  I borrowed a clickpad so I could do this


You didn't answer my main question...
Let's say it another way.

Are you trying to say that you are getting continuous reboots with:
- a basic TI-Nspire TouchPad
- and the ClickPad keypad
- and the OS 1.1
?

It has worked for me without any problem.
I've even taken a photo which is available online.
My basic TouchPad datestamp is P-0110A.

What is your datestamp?

And it's normal for OS 1.1 to endlessly reboot with a TouchPad keypad.
That's why I've said in the instructions to install a ClickPad keypad.

The ClickPad keypad is not just needed during installation...
You have to keep it for normal operation of the 1.1 OS.


With the basic TouchPad, you absolutely have to install a ClickPad keypad.
With the CAS TouchPad, you can keep the TouchPad keypad, but the ClickPad keypad will be easier to use... in some way.

Ah I found the topic about the keypads mixing http://tibank.forumactif.com/actualites-f25/claviers-amovibles-melanges-t5812.htm

But not the news on the portal :/

Thanks for the clarification.


There is a way to get the 1.1 OS working with a TouchPad keypad on a basic TouchPad.

- install Ndless
- launch a Ndless program, like the particle demo
- hot-swap your ClickPad keypad with a TouchPad keypad

The OS is now working with the TouchPad keypad.
Many keys will be messed up, and the arrow keys won't work at all.
Up to now, there is no fix for that.

But, you'll need the ClickPad keypad again, if your calculator ever reboots...
And I don't remember well, but I think the calculator will reboot if you turn it off then on with the TouchPad keypad...


So, I'm sorry but you need to keep the ClickPad keypad.

Question: Should we move all Ndless help topics in this sub-forum or should I leave them in the help section? Having them in the Ndless sub-forum would make sense, but I think people will still ask Ndless questions in the help sub-forum instead of here and if we keep them where they are, I wouldn't be surprised if people asked questions about it in here. In Axe Parser case, all help topics are in the project sub-forum, though. If we move them here the help section would be less cluttered, but then if too many Ndless topics are located in here, we will have to pin every important topic so they won't get lost in the list.

It might be good to move them to the sub-forum so new users can see them in case any of them answer their specific questions, but there are a lot of Ndless question threads, so it might be hard to move them all here.

Instead of moving them, maybe we can start a general Ndless help thread here?

As long as it doesn't become a 44-page long thread as on UTI...

Oh, I meant individual topics, not really one topic. After all, the two main Axe parser topics are 1500-1600 posts large each ;D I was more worried about a flood of individual topics asking questions, then eventually the same questions re-asked again with a few variations after a new version comes out. :P

I was dedicating my time to the GDB debugging feature of the upcoming release of Ncubate. I will look into the freeze issues of Ndless after the release of Ncubate.

Seems cool, I hope you don't have too much issues figuring those freeze issues out. :)

Hmm, I forget, was it proven that using the eSATA port makes it work alot better?
