Title: Problem Ndless 3.1 and/or Mviewer 3.3
Post by: Anna on January 10, 2013, 11:54:09 am


I have installed Ndless 3.1 (latest) on my 3.1.0.392 device (Nspire CX) and installed Mviewer 3.3.
But when I want to open a image (1 of the samples, included in Mviewer) it gives the following error: “this document format is not supported”.

I thought maybe I did something wrong so I uninstall Mviewer and Ndless. But when I clicked on nless_resources (for uninstalling Ndless) the same error appear (this document format is not supported).
Is Ndless never been Installed?

I reinstal Ndless (i followed the tutorial), device reboot etc. but again these error’s please help me!

Did you remember to send ndless.tco as an OS upgrade? That's what actually installs Ndless.

You probably didn't send the OS upgrade like t0xic said. Do exactly what the tutorial says e.g. make a folder called ndless, send ndless_resources.tns and ndless.cfg there and then send ndless_intaller-3.1.0.tco to your device. If ndless installs succesfully, you will get the following message: (http://puu.sh/1M4fm)

device reboot etc
Looks like you've sent the .tco . But are you sure you put ndless_resources in the right folder (ie "ndless") ?

I did every step. Including the OS update (in my case: "ndless_installer-3.1.0.tco").

But I didn't get the "Ndless successfully installed" message...

Any advice?

(thanks for the quick reply's BTW!)

Yep. I will try again now...

Edit:
My computer says (in dutch) "couldn't contact device" and stops halfway transferring. On my device it shows a boot or reboot process line. Maybe it's already rebooting before the Ndless OS is fully transmitted...? And because my Nspire is to early (re)booting the file was not send completely?

(sorry for my English again...)

The error on the PC-side is normal.

Look at your nspire: you should see a popup, then (and only then) a reboot.

Please check again you've got the right OS version (home 5 4) and that ndless_resources is in the right folder ("ndless" at the root of your documents).

That explains it all, everything should go alright now. Have fun with ndless :) Small tip: instead of double posting, use the MODIFY button on the top right of your message :)

P.S. Good to see another dutch(wo)man (assuming from the "... says (in dutch)...") here at omni :), welcome!

Hello Anna, welcome to Omnimaga! :) I hope you are able to get everything up and running ok. Just as a note, if you have something to add to your post after only a short while you can use the "modify" button in the top right hand corner of the post.

Haha I'am still here...

With another question:

Could it be possible to connect your TI-Nspire CX via WiFi to the internet and use a browser (searching google etc.)??
Maybe with the TI-navigator?

(or should I open a new topic for this question?)

Yes, it's possible, through the ongoing port of Linux :)
But the Nspire has a slow CPU, little RAM, and a small screen of very low resolution, so graphic browsers running in X11 are hardly more than a proof of concept - they're just too slow to be usable for practical purposes.

it's already possible to do this, via the CX linux port (http://ourl.ca/17131). however, because of the limited hardware, graphical browsing is very slow.

Can old sites with very small images like back in the '90s (such as ticalc.org) be decently fast enough?

links -g works beautifully.
But it doesn't support css, so it's just a long text with some images in between.
I think it'd fit into a ramdisk, so you only need a cable with a (low power) WLAN dongle.
