OmnomIRC Development / Re: Firefox + IRC = mass crashing today
« on: October 02, 2011, 11:02:27 am »
I think we should keep a copy of this buggy OmnomIRC and give it to Mozilla. It is the web dev's fault in this case, but it might be interesting for them to analyze. Their memory profiling is top notch, and this case scenario might enable them to optimize more...

I don't think they are interested, because I submitted a bug report of a script that fills the entire memory in seconds, and they didn't care.

Lua / Re: Prettify string (superscript etc.)

I'm terribly sorry, totally forgot about this!

I think the easiest would be to use a smaller font, because I only find a few characters, not all of them.

Alrighty, I managed to extract an ext2 image out of it:
Code: (SH) [Select]
dd if=initrd.e2fs.gz.uboot bs=1 skip=64 of=rootfs.ext2.gz
gzip -d rootfs.ext2.gz

I need to use to split the file because the first part is a uImage (kernel) header.
Now you have the ext2 image, simple mount it (sudo mount -o loop rootfs.ext2 /path/to/mount/point).
In it you can see that it uses the RADIUS technology for its network. Also, it looks like it contains a SSH server, so you should be able to SSH into it.

Here are the file results on initrd.e2fs.gz.uboot and uImage:
Code: [Select]
uImage: u-boot legacy uImage, Linux-2.6.31.13, Linux/ARM, OS Kernel Image (Not compressed), 1655392 bytes, Wed Jan 19 19:11:06 2011, Load Address: 0x80008000, Entry Point: 0x80008000, Header CRC: 0x5D8D20F3, Data CRC: 0xCB86419D

initrd.e2fs.gz.uboot: u-boot legacy uImage, NWB Image 3.0.0.20, Linux/ARM, RAMDisk Image (gzip), 4937853 bytes, Wed Jan 19 19:11:44 2011, Load Address: 0x81000000, Entry Point: 0x81000000, Header CRC: 0xA0DE5B4D, Data CRC: 0x0D85D138

General Calculator Help / Re: TI-NSpire Testing Woes
« on: October 01, 2011, 04:37:51 am »
To get OS >3 running in the emulator, you need an older boot2 (like 1.4.0).
Download an older OS, and open it with winrar or 7zip. Extract the boot2 image.

Then you need to use imagedump.exe to decompress the boot2.
So, in the end you need the boot2 from an earlier version, and TI-Nspire.img from the OS 3.

Then just follow the normal instructions I guess :)

Hah, so Linux anyway!
Will check it out tomorrow, to see if I can get some interesting bits out of it :D

I'd love to do it, but sometimes I really don't have time during the day. Currently I need to do lots of studying, and will be less active the next weeks, so idk :/

Well, string.byte looks at the string as if it would be ascii, but in fact the nspire uses utf-8. UTF-8 uses multiple bytes, unlike ascii. And since string.byte is for ascii, it takes only the first byte, 194.
To make a story short, you need string.char(194, 178) for ². 194 is the first byte, 178 the second.
Now, to find the bytes of a utf-8 char first use string.len, to see how many bytes there are. Then use string.byte to fetch the chars:
Code: (Lua) [Select]
ch="²"
string.len(ch)  --returns 2
b1=ch:byte(1) --returns 194
b2=ch:byte(2) -- returns 178

chr = string.byte(194, 178) --returns ²
