General Calculator Help / Re: Nspire CAS+ not detected
« on: February 22, 2012, 09:09:38 pm »
Yes to both questions, software downloaded and installed, and all usb devices working great.
You could possibly send this fun calc to critor for analysis... ;)

But yeah, you're pretty much SOL... Amazon I would trust more. A friend got an old Clickpad CAS for ~$50. (And it's not a prototype - he install ndless3 on it as soon as he got it! :D)

If you do decide to ship it to critor, he will likely pay the shipping for you, and maybe (tentatively :P) give you money for a new one :P

Sad to see you go... ;(

Such is life, but as always, I wish you good luck in your future endeavors, and life! :D
Since you're not coming back, might as well give you those odd little goodbyes: hope you live long, and become prosperous! :P (Honestly, I hope you do. :))

nSDL / Re: SDL for the TI-Nspire

Hmm... how hard will it be to write a BLFT loader? It seems that this project (and possibly many others) might need one.
It has code relocation and is much smaller than the ELF loader.

(If it isn't too hard, I might attempt to write one :P Seems that one would need to know ARM ASM to do it... which I don't know)

can't download 1st assignment

Make sure you're in the actual 1st module. The introduction doesn't have the first assignment.

nSDL / Re: SDL for the TI-Nspire

BLFT is also another possible option, if that may help with making SDL port work.

Ndless / Re: ELF Loader for Ndless - (now ready for non-dev use)

Any progress on this? ELF support would be very interesting to see on the Nspire! :D

TI-Nspire / Re: Graphics Drivers for the TI-Nspire

An SDL port is in progress. :) There also may be an ELF loader that will be made to implement C++ support for the Nspire.

A BLFT loader may be possible as well.

It's not that limited, I don't think.
On that note, I got in - legitimately! :D

I've taken the entire course already, so if there is any question of cheating from the Casio guys, I will be able to prove to them that I know their PRIZM inside and out :)

(Yes, I initially looked at those cheating files, but decided it wasn't worth it.)

CASIO seems to have updated their assessment documentation, so it should be much more clearer now. :)

That's the one that keeps me stuck... :/

Bleh... if you are really flexible with the PRIZM, this is definitely for you. If not (aka me)... you will suffer. :P

OK, it's not that bad, but there are certainly a few things that could be cleared up. For assessment #1, #3b asks to set up a side by side graph and table. Easy peasy. Then it asks to set up a domain for Y2... which has 4 numbers {-5, 5, 15, 25}. Aren't there just 2-3 numbers at max? :P

Maybe I'm just irritated because I'm working on a tiny keyboard, tiny screen netbook with my big hands... ;)

nSDL / Re: SDL for the TI-Nspire
« on: January 23, 2012, 06:14:03 pm »
Indeed I am! :) In fact, ExtendeD approached me via email and mentioned that he'd like to combine efforts to make a port of SDL. (Or as I like to term it, nSDL!)
(ExtendeD, I'm attempting to finish an email to you regarding future plans...)

Here's my plan - it has changed a little bit, but it should convey the point anyway:


The change I've mentioned? Having nDraw or not. Basically, nDraw would handle the important thing - the layers. In SDL, having a fullscreen window is equivalent to writing directly to the screen buffer. If you wanted to use the hardware mouse in the CX, it must be drawn as a window/layer.

HOWEVER... I could implement it SDL so that full screen means a window/layer. It all depends...
We should really combine efforts, since creating 3 incarnations of nSDL is going to be painful and pointless... :P
