Title: nspire linux gui
Post by: Jonson26 on September 04, 2017, 04:22:15 pm

I've recently stumnbled across this: http://incise.org/tinywm.html (http://incise.org/tinywm.html) on the internet. Apparently it's a window manager, that needs only 0,5 MB of RAM. Maybe someone, having the right tools to do it, could use this to make a graphical interface for nspire linux?
Then we could finally put those linux hid drivers to some use. ;)
This would also make nspire linux more appealing to the average nspire user. I am also wondering, if it's possible to make it linux on the nspire easier to use.

Well, why don't you just try it out yourself? No time? No skills?
The idea is cool, though. Happy coding  :P
