Now that the mainline kernel supports the TI-Nspire along with all its peripherials and we have a decent bootloader for it, it's theorically possible to install pretty much every Linux distro that supports ARM. It's pretty easy to build a filesystem with the ARM version of Arch Linux with pacman and load it in your Nspire and it would theorically work. If I had a Nspire I'd definitely try that out.
So it would basically be possible to run android on an nspire? As far as I know, that distro is aimed at ARM. It would deffinately be interesting, especially if you could get it to run android apps.

Yes. However, you would probably have to write a driver for whatever the Android GUI uses, plus it would probably run very slowly on that hardware.

Yes, it will start the TI-OS, which is a good thing so that if something goes wrong you still have a calculator.

No, Ubuntu doesn't support the ARM architecture (I think).

That's for ARMv8, I believe the Nspire is ARMv5

Would you show some pictures or a short video so those of us without a cx can see? :)

I don't have an nspire (yet) so I would love some pics too.  :)   And also great job!  :thumbsup:   I wonder what the performance difference would be in comparison to linucx...
