It works for me as well.
The font is very hard to read (its tiny), but it works better, the flicker is there, but MUCH better.
X Windows still won't work, im getting
(EE) Failed to load module "fbdev" (module does not exist,0)
(EE) Failed to load module "mouse" (module does not exist, 0)
(EE) Failed to load module "kbd" (module does not exist,0)

Ok, so this is basically an issue with the kernel itself, not with my setup. I wish I could help with porting/patching linux stuff, but I'm a newbie with C.

Mine freezes on reboot until I hard reset it. Is that what NAND corruption is? Or did I just completely brick your calc?

Im using ndless r985 and it won't even launch for me.
Edit: I'll try reinstalling ndless again, see if that helps. Also the build I used for the kernel was 20130119_1525, and 20130118_1959 for the FS Image

That's a bug in nTxt's version checker, im pretty sure, i get the same thing.

I believe I do, i just redownloaded it from tiplanet. Why one kernel would work and the other wouldn't with the same ndless version is beyond me. I guess I'll try updating it (though I swear I just did it not long ago for gpsp)
That would probably also explain the flicker and such.
Edit: Nope, its definitely up to date, the last time ndless was updated was 8/15/2012, and I've definitely updated it since then

That is the exact same build I was using, that or the one from the 18th. The latest build just causes my calculator to hard reboot after I run my script...  Do I need a new ndless or something?

I also use a CX CAS. There might be something wrong with the build from there. So you're fixing it? Excellent!

Yay, changing it to /dev/sda1 worked! It boots!
However, why is the screen flashing white so much, also the x server doesn't work. (I tried "startx", and it gave me a no display error)

I used extended zImage, and the xconfig rootfs.
On my debian server, it identified the reader as /dev/sdb1, but thats probably because the SSD the os uses is called /dev/sda1. Worth a try, i suppose, to call it /dev/sdb in the script and see what happens.
The kernel panic occurs after "Attached SCSI removable disk'
The panic then states something about root block mounting errors (its hard to tell what its saying)
Probably the kernel not liking my card reader.
Edit: it loads initrd's just fine, just cant use USB. When i used an initrd with usb plugged in, it seemedrecognize it, no idea if it mounted right

Crap, got kernel panic while it was booting, after. It seems to have identified my USB device that I loaded it onto, but then crashed. This might have something to do with the fact that I'm using a 4GB SD Card and a reader (all I had, and I'm too lazy to go buy a USB hub). Is that the only reason for the panic, using the SD Card? I suppose I'll try a longer root delay, see if that works, since SDs are slower.

Wow...this has come a long way since I first saw it in October  I've downloaded the latest rootfs, kernel, and such from tiplanet, and grabbed the USB Bootscript from the main thread. What kind of initrd do I need? The only one I have is the one I built a long time ago and added some applications to with buildroot, before there was USB support. From what I understand, I have to but the zImage in the linux folder, untar the xconfig-latest.tar.bz2 to a USB stick, run the bootscript, and it should load linux with the GUI. Is this correct?

So were all the USB support changes on the kernel side? Could I just use an existing FS image and boot it correctly on a USB stick?
EDIT: Also, what kind of cable do I need to buy?
EDIT Again: What sort of other stuff is on the image? GCC? Lua?

that makes sense, since the toolchain would need wchar support, and thats the error im getting with the header file. I guess ill just set up to build clean, thanks

Hopefully, I can get Python to compile and run, though I think it might be too big. Can't hurt to try it
Currently, it fails on compiling the unicodeobject.h file, don't know why, something about variable declaration errors.
Python 2.7 on an Nspire, now THAT would be cool.
I got it to work a while ago but it increased the ramdisk size to ~20MB and the loading time wasn't really worth it 
How'd you do that? I just tried messing with the broken header file, but to no avail. I mostly want to do it simply because I can, like everything else I do to my calculator  . Do you have to use the python source code from their site, not from buildroot?
