I'm in the exact same situation as you - new ti89t, direct cable, same
errors.  I would be happy to provide any more verbose feedback if that
would be helpful to someone.

Unrelated: is this a case of user stupidity or are the files on the
tilp sourceforge page not the same as those on ticalc.org?  The tilp2
package on sourceforge is corrupt, the tar archive is truncated and
missing many files.  And the tilp2-libs are different versions than
those on ticalc.org
