Ndless / Re: Ndless 1.7 for TI-Nspire
« on: December 05, 2010, 06:03:00 am »
I had to add the following line in the os.h file in order to be able to use the int chdir(char*) function:
Code: [Select]
_SYSCALL1(int, chdir, char*)
Now I'm able to browse through the whole Nspire filesystem, even the hidden part!



If you need such a browsing interface for your Ndless programs, you may reuse/adapt my code:

Btw this is awesome, is it possible to modify files there? O.O

If you insert the wanted modifying actions in the source code,yes it is possible.
You just need to fopen/fseek/fread/fwrite/fclose.

All I am expecting now is Ndless 2.0!!!! Touchpad-working!

Then, you might consider a small donation to the Ndless team ?

hy, i just installed ndless, it works fine, thanks!!
but the problem is:
when i am installing, it only works in maybe 1 out of 4 attempts...the other times it just reboots, or i have to reboot manually
my firmware is 1.1.2741

jabem, where do you see this "firmware version"?

1.1.2741 is unknown to me.
You probably misread your 1.7.2741 OS version.

The white super-imposed keys describe how the keycodes are read and understood if they were keycodes for the other keypad.
So, when you press 'X', the calculator acts as if you pressed '.' (To the right of the 'Y' key)

Yeah, that is very simple!

Yes, actually, you can downgrade it without the clickpad, but the only way to use the OS is to use the clickpad.


After booting the 1.7 OS with a ClickPad keypad, just launch any Ndless program (which should disable interrupts) and then hotswap the keypads.
Then, you can use your 1.7 OS with a TouchPad keypad, by looking at this image from bsl on UTI:




But... you'll need the ClickPad keypad again if the OS ever reboots...
And it will surely reboot very soon, on the next time you turn the calculator off/on, because this forces the changed-keypad check.

Well, you can downgrade the touchpad to 1.x using Nleash (although you must use the clickpad keypad to have it functional), but the touchpads can not be downgraded to 1.7.

non-CAS TouchPads can be downgraded to all OSes 1.1-1.7 with a ClickPad keypad and Nleash.

CAS  TouchPads can only be downgraded to OSes 1.1-1.4 with a ClickPad keypad and Nleash.

One small issue I have had with Ndless 1.7:

When I turned my Nspire on, I found that Ndless was uninstalled, even though the calculator was not reset.  I just reinstalled Ndless and this was fixed.


Got something similar today.
I ran particles and then turned the calculator off.

While turning it on, the calculator just rebooted.

The 1.7 OS rebooting is quite fast... some secunds.
So maybe you didn't notice it.


Juste happened to me once today, though.

Hum, when you turn off the calculator, it resets?

Remember it just happened to me once today.
I've turned the calculator off and then back on dozens of times today without any problem.

Yes, but even though what extendeD wants is a bug-less version for 1.7, a stable release, so pretty much everything matters :S


Not bug-less but stable.
Bug-less is probably impossible for now.

But it is very stable.
I'm even compiling for Ndless and testing directly on calc.


I was just stating that your "when you turn off the calculator, it resets" was not an accurate description of what happened to me.
And without accurate descriptions, we cannot correct bugs.

Keep in mind that if you do have to modify the hardware to put it into "83+ mode", the regular TI-83 OS may not be able to boot properly in that mode.

Yes, I know.
I've allready tested on TilEm by pasting a TI-83 ROM in a TI-73/83+ ROM, and on a true TI-83+ by flashing a TI-83 OS. The TI-83 OSes (including the special 1.11fr7 and 1.00fr5 versions) aren't booting on a TI-83+ hardware.

So even if I modify the hardware, I won't be able to know if it's in 73/83+ mode before flashing a new OS and boot code...


I suppose the best test to be sure that the difference is inside the ASIC would be to replace the TI-82Stats.fr/76.fr ASIC by a TI-73/83+ ASIC.

If it does boot the TI-82Stats.fr/76.fr OS, then the mode is set by the PCB and we "might" be able to do something about that.
If it doesn't boot (and if it is properly soldered...), then the mode is set inside the ASIC, and we need the private datasheets from TI...


By the way, TI-73 OSes need to be patched before installing them on TI-83+ hardware, and TI-83+ OSes need to be patched too before installing them on TI-73 hardware.

Why? Are those patches needed only because of the different boot codes, or is there something different with the ports?

If there is something different with the ports, it may come from the same thing that is making thoses ASICs operate in 83 mode here...

Just because on TI-BANK and United-TI you can put down (en français vous dîtes "enfoncer" je crois?) members who ask simple questions and miss the answer buried among the previous three hundred messages without worrying if they will feel welcome anymore or not, it doesn't mean you are allowed to do so on Omnimaga.

Please DJ, don't get mad at me, but I'd like to say something.

Not something about your decision. You're right.
It's true that Levak's post seems agressive to me.
Was it meant? I don't know... Just remember that Levak doesn't speak english natively.
He is taking the time to share his knowledge in english, and he may use the right technical terms, but not the right non-technical terms... He might not have wanted to sound so agressive...
Of course, like you I hope there won't be a next time but if there is, I beg you, please take that into consideration before taking a big decision.

No, it's something about your comment.
I don't know about UTI, but on TI-Bank neither Levak nor the TI-Bank team does put down new members... We are taking the time to post comprehensive answers, and repeat them in other topics if necessary.
Thank you for reading.


Now, back on topic.

Thank you all for the Ndless tests and those great news! ^^

so somebody would need to take off his calc's PCB??!!


There seems to be some grounding difference between the TI-82Stats.fr/76.fr ASIC and the TI-73/83+ ASIC.

And after unsoldering some pins, it seems the difference is inside the ASIC.

I'm going to test with another calculator. I'll post the shematics, if those informations are confirmed.


But if I'm right, then there are 2 possibilities:

* either the ASIC chips are different from the start (which I doubt), although their references are identic...

* either the ASIC is electrically configured during production, in order to operate in basic 83 mode, or in 73/83+ mode
(through some kind of flashing, or by opening/closing some internal jumper by applying a high voltage...)


In both cases, it seems to be bad news for us... unless we can access the top-secret TI-738X ASIC datasheet.

Lots of people have Win64, why didn't Texas make a compatible version with it?!


Why do we need the proprietary TI-Nspire Computer Link, when the TI-Nspire calculators could have been detected and used by computers as mass-storage devices?

We're in 2010 and soon 2011, TI... We're not in 1993 any more (1st TI Graph Link software, for the TI-85).
