[TiLP-devel] ti-89 titanium with tilp-2 svn

[Mike M. <ak...@gm...>]

Hi,

I asked Kevin if there was any news w.r.t the 89t working with tilp on
linux.  He said that preliminary support may have been added to the
svn code.  I grabbed a copy and built it.

It seems that the problems from march/april 2006 still exist.  It
seems that tilp-2 is still unable to communicate with the 89t.  I
tried runing tilp-2 like this, both as a normal user and as root:

$ tilp-2 --calc=ti89t --cable=DirectLink

The calculator is plugged in and turned on:

and it is available to libusb:

Any news on the 89t front?
