Cannot install "TiEmu2 Port" on My N810

I am trying to install the "TiEmu2 Port" (http://maemo.org/downloads/product/OS2008/tiemu2/) on my N810 device. However, when enter the "aaplication manager" inerface, it pops out the error message as "Unable to download tiemu2. Application package not found".
Can somebody help me to solve it? Where can I download the application package? Appreciate!!!

Re: Cannot install "TiEmu2 Port" on My N810

My personal preference is
AlmostTI Graphing Calc Emulator.

Check that out instead, I believe it's in Extra-Devel. :)

Re: Cannot install "TiEmu2 Port" on My N810

I tried to install "AlmostTI Graphing Calc Emulator" as well, but I cannot download it due to "Server not found".
I am Chinese. Do not know if this is a regional issue or not? I there anyother website available for me to download it? Thanks!

Re: Cannot install "TiEmu2 Port" on My N810

Maybe the servers are currently down.

Sorry, but I can't help you on this.

Download all those files and read the README.txt

-------------------------------
I'd also like to report a bug (not sure who to send it to) I stumbled upon while investigating the broken link reported in this thread.

Broken "navigation" links. To replicate this bug: go to http://maemo.org/downloads/ you will be redirected to http://maemo.org/downloads/Maemo5/ in the Search bar type in something like "almost" this will link you to the Maemo5 version, now if you have realized your "mistake" and click OS2008 it links to http://maemo.org/downloads/search/application/ instead of the correct link: http://maemo.org/downloads/OS2008/

Re: Cannot install "TiEmu2 Port" on My N810

Thanks! I can download the files from the box.net webside. but I have no idea how to use X-terminal and become the root (in the readme file "open X-term and become root"). Could you please help me on that? Thanks!

Re: Cannot install "TiEmu2 Port" on My N810

I'm going to assume you can figure out how to open xterm (menu>settings>xterm)

I like the easyroot package but it's a personal preference. Download and install: http://nitstuff.appspot.com/dists/ch....0-4_armel.deb

In the xterm window you should be greeted to something like

Code:

Busybox v1.6.1 (2008-09-18 09:43:17 EEST) Built-in shell (ash)

Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.



~ $

the "~ $" part is the important part. This is called "the prompt". The first half tells you what directory you are currently CD'd into. The second half tells you which user/account you are running commands as.

As a quick primer, "~" is shorthand for the home directory, in this case, it's located as /home/user/
"$" in this case means you are running as the user named "user" (quite literally, eh?). To run administrative tasks you need root permissions, therefore you are going to "log in" as root. You will not be prompted for a password (unless you are doing this via ssh). You do not type the prompt, you type everything after the prompt. If you tap the Tab on-screen button (or CTRL+I) it will try to auto-complete what you are typing based on what files exist in that directory.

Code:

~ $ root



Busybox v1.6.1 (2008-09-18 09:43:17 EEST) Built-in shell (ash)

Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.



Nokia-N810-43-7:~#

Now you are root.

Continuing on

Code:

Nokia-N810-43-7:~# cd /home/user/MyDocs/.documents

Nokia-N810-43-7:/home/user/MyDocs/.documents/# ls *.deb

libticables_3.9.7-1_armel.deb

libticalcs_4.6.2-1_armel.deb

libtifiles_0.6.6-1_armel.deb

tiemu2_2.08-1_armel.deb

Nokia-N810-43-7:/home/user/MyDocs/.documents/# dpkg -i libticables_3.9.7-1_armel.deb libticalcs_4.6.2-1_armel.deb libtifiles_0.6.6-1_armel.deb tiemu2_2.08-1_armel.deb

The readme should guide you through the rest, if not reply with where you got stuck.

Re: Cannot install "TiEmu2 Port" on My N810

Hi linuxeventually, thanks for your help!
I still cannot install the TiEmu2 sucessfully on my N810. When I enter the "# dpkg -i libtifiles_0.6.6-1_armel.deb" in x-thermal, it shows "cannot access archive: No such file or directory Errors were encountered while processing: libtifiles_0.6.6-1_armel.deb".
I do not know what is wrong with my device? BTW I have downloaded all the files in my storage card, under a forlder "TI Calculator".

Re: Cannot install "TiEmu2 Port" on My N810

Hi linuxeventually,, I have installed the it in my N810 already by change all the files location.
But, I do not know how to do for the 11th step "11.) Menu key>Set ROM> and navigate to where you saved os.89u". When I open the TiEmu2, I cannot find the OS.89u under the set rom selection window. I cannnot find the OS.89U.

Re: Cannot install "TiEmu2 Port" on My N810

Finally, I installed it successfully. I found the OS.89U file and loaded it. But when I tried to configure, just after I press the "memu" key it shows the white screen. I tried to uninstall it, then re-install again. But cannnot recover it. Then i tried to clear device and restore original settings, still cannot recover it. :((
What can I do to solve it?

Re: Cannot install "TiEmu2 Port" on My N810

I'm totally unclear/clueless what the latest problem is.

What white screen are you referring to? The Nokia boot splash? Or the "TIemu searching for ROM dumps" splash?

Do you have the rotate kernel installed and the screen in "portrait" mode? "memu" key is the "menu" key I assume. Did you flash the device? You shouldn't have had to.

I've been meaning to flash my other n810 with the community SSU so maybe I'll do that and record a video of installing TIemu2 if need be.

Good luck and keep messing with it, I know it's frustrating.

Re: Cannot install "TiEmu2 Port" on My N810

Hi linuxeventually! Appreciate you kindly help!
I can open the TiEmu2 application. but the screen only shows partial of the calculator. It shows "TEXAS INSRRUMENTS TI_89" only. When I pressed the press the memu key (you are right, this is the device key) and tried to change settings. The screen shows white screen. Then I have to close this application.
I suppose i need the rotate kernel and change the device with "portrait" mode. But I have no idea how to get ot install it? Do you have this kernel and could you reach me how to install it? Thanks again!
