Great for the alpha version!

If I have some time, I'll compile it, and try to check why both Ndshell and mViewer are crashing.
Those programs are sharing screen, keys and file browsing code.

Let me guess... the incompatibility comes from file browsing code? :p

I would say that would have to be it, as gbc4nspire also uses file browsing.

Doesn't gbc4nspire contain hard-coded addresses of syscalls anyway?

Don't know, but mViewer and NDShell don't.

Sorry, the address of NU_Get_First was wrong, it's fixed now.
I didn't pay enough attention to the broken automated tests.

Here is a list of the programs that worked and did not work:

Worked:

Ndless Demo
NESpire
Block Dude
Trapped
Chip's Challenge
Calc84's Console

Crash:

gbc4nspire
mViewer
ndshell

Also, I have had some odd things happen after running an Ndless program while using the touchpad.  First, once the arrow keys stopped working after running a program, and second, it froze on the home screen once.  Both of these issues were fixed with a reboot.  I have not had any of these problems while using the clickpad.

This is really good!!! I am now installing OS 2.1, so that I can install ndless right after :D

You need OS 2.0.1, not 2.1. :P

Here are the Touchpad Definitions from Ndless 1.4 - copy and paste the block
int this file into Ndless 2.0 common.h

2.1 is bad anyway, killing 1Mb of free space for visibly nothing.

The version hex-edited by Goplat should work on all Ndless versions 1.7 or greater, I should think. It might work now that the NU_Get_First routine has been fixed

Yep. Didn't it have more bugs too?

Nice. Do you think Ndless 1.4 should be included with 1.7 on ticalc.org by the way? I thought it would be nice to have all Ndless versions available in one download (for those who prefer using older/smaller OSes)

I was waiting for a proven stable version of 1.7 to come out, before updating Ndless 1.3/1.4
Maybe OS2.0 will give me clues on how to interact with the TouchPad  for OS1.3-4 ?
If not I will give up on the TouchPad and update Ndless 1.3/1.4  and post it.
I will be out of luck if the Applications under those older OS's communicated directly with the hardware I/O
instead of a common OS software call.
Those older OS's can give you more memory and speed to work with .

Here's another possible workaround, that just takes a reboot instead of a full OS reinstall: create a patched boot2 that doesn't try to load the OS but goes straight into download mode. (e.g. patch the code at offset 0x1244 from 31 06 00 eb to 15 00 00 ea). Send documents using the patched boot2 (may need to set the target folder to the empty string, it doesn't seem to like sending to Examples). Save flash, quit, and restart using the original boot2.
I used the /d option on the emulator instead, found and changed the bytes at 0x11801244 and
continued , to get a :
Code: [Select]
Press <Enter> to download through the serial port.
Checking battery level.
Battery level is OK.
Begin XMODEM file transfer.
not sure what to do next ?
EDIT: same result when I really do patch boot2.raw

It worked in the emulator? Great!
