TiLP2 v1.11 released: full NSpire support (OS 1.2 & 1.3) and full NSpire-CAS support.
- 14/01/2008 by roms:
Six months later, I am very happy to announce the release of TiLP2 v1.10. This release includes the usual improvements and bug fixes and adds NSpire support (picture here). Please note that NSpire-CAS has not been tested...

TiLP2 v1.07 has just been released. This release does not contains non-free software any longer: PortTalk NT I/O driver has been replaced by MPlayer's DHA driver and my USB driver has been replaced by libusb-win32 one.
The grouping/ungrouping capabilities of TiLP have been moved into a new application called GFM (Group File Manager).
Note: v1.07 released on ticalc.org had a bug (dhahelper.sys driver was void and no locales) so I released v1.07a again.
Note2: v1.07a released on ticalc.org had a bug, again. The driver is not properly detected by ticables2 library. So, I released v1.07b (Sep. the 13th) on SourceForge. Sorry for any inconveniencies.

Due to an exchange between the IUFM (University training French teachers at Grenoble) and UTeach (University training Texan teachers at Austin,Texas), I was at Austin from March the 24th to April the 7th. So, I had the opportunity to meet people of TI-EPS at Dallas.
After several mails and letters and a 30' international phone call, I got an appointment with Steve (Ti-Cares Customer Support) and Herbert (Manager of Business Services) on Monday the 2nd to discuss about hand-helds and Linux. I rent a car at Austin and 4 hours later, I was in Dallas!
The appointment have last 3 hours: a tour of the company (call center, T3 program and delivering), a question roadmap, a presentation of LPG's various Linux software and a presentation of the new nspire by TI.
To sump-up: no way to get any documentation and/or (un)official Linux support. I will not give the reasons here but they are related to money and reputation.
I have talked about the Titanium-USB/Linux bug: I will send a bug report but they can't promise anything (cost).

With some help from the linux-usb mailing list, we have discovered why Titanium has a problem with Linux:
<<> Any ideas about this 'bug'? Is it related to kernel or bad hand-held
>>
> hardware?
It is a bug in the Titanium firmware. In the logs for both handhelds you
can see where the kernel sends a Set-Interface request after your driver
releases the interface. (The kernel does this automatically so that the
interface will be back in its original condition when the next driver
binds to it.) Both devices return an error, which is a perfectly legal
response.
However the Titanium then crashes. It doesn't respond to the Clear-Halt
commands sent by the kernel after the Set-Interface fails, whereas the
TI84+ acknowledges them correctly. Since it has crashed, your driver is
unable to reconnect and you have to reset the device by unplugging it.
The source of the errors is the Titanium failure to respond to the
kernel's Clear-Halt requests.

Yeah, TiLP2 v1.00 has been released on ticalc.org. This is the first stable & official release. Great thanks to Benjamin Moody for his analysis of the TI84+ USB protocol.
The Link Guide has been updated consequently, too
Important note: TiLP1 is _not_ supported any longer.
- 28/08/2006 by roms:
TiLP2 v0.23 has been released on SF. It is frozen for now and entering in testing phase (~250 tests). Once TiLP2 validated, it will become v1.00 after 6 months of development.
- 04/07/2006 by roms:
TI84+ USB issue under Linux has been fixed (see ML). You will find TiLP-II v0.17 on SourceForge (see note2 below). Please note that Titanium USB still does not work under Linux (kernel 2.6.x only, reason: unknown!).
- 28/05/2006 by roms:
Beta release of TiLP-II (v0.13) with TI84+ & Titanium USB support is available in the download sections. You are encouraged to test and report...
- 23/03/2006 by roms:
I am currently actively working on the DirectUsb (TI84+) link support. This should have been done 1 year earlier but I was involved in many professionnal projects and not really/fully motivated. Things are OK for now.
Note: thanks to the greatest/wonderful USB documentation from B. Moody, the TI84+ USB support is growing quickly. On April the 5th, TiLP-II is supporting all operations except FLASH related ones.
Note2: beta release of TiLP-II with partial (all functions except OS transfers) TI84+ & Titanium USB support is available: win32 linux.
- 01/03/2006 by roms:
TiLP-II is now frozen and enters in testing phase. The v0.1.0 release should be available ASAP... I have taken into account many suggestions from T. Evans or others and well as some bug fixes. Once released, I will start full work on the DirectUsb cable/protocol which seems to be very requested by users.
Note: the TiLP-II framework includes a new library (ticonv) developped by the TiEmu team (Kevin and I). This library handles TI charset <=> UTF-8/UTF-16 charset conversions as well as varname detokenization for TI8X.

TiLP development is restarting for now. The project stopped 4 months ago due to a lack of time. I'm sorry but mails sent during this period have been dropped. You may need to submit them again...
- 28/08/2005 by roms:
Beta release of TiLP-II is available. Please note that TiLP-I v6.xx is now unsupported ! You are encouraged to use TiLP-II instead.
- 25/07/2005 by roms:
For the release of TiLP-II, I have designed a new web site (copied the TiEmu's one in fact).
An alpha release of TiLP-II is available in the download section. The testing phase should begin shortly. once finished, an RC1 will be released.
TiLP-II is an almost complete rewrite of TiLP and its framework (libti*).
The framework includes now a full documentation.
TiLP-II has all of the TiLP functions and more. It has experimental support of DirectLink, too (TI84+ & Titanium USB cable but work is in progress and nothing is usable by user).
- 27/04/2005 by roms:
TiLP v6.78b has been released on ticalc.org, as usually. This release fixes bugs with browser location and the Linux '/usr/lib/tilp' directory. Please note that v6.78 has been released on ticalc.org but it contains the wrong location for GTK+ DLLs. This is the reason why I upload v6.78b. If you don't want to download it again, you will find GTK+ at the download section.
- 31/01/2005 by roms:
TiLP v6.77 has been released on ticalc.org, as usually. This release adds few missing features: full FLASH support (os & apps) of TI84+ and Titanium hand-helds.
Please not that direct USB cable is still unusable by TiLP (TI changed the whole protocol). Nevertheless, our USB driver supports it.
