Pity, I just (2 weeks ago) throw away my self-made serial cable to connect my Ti85 - didn't use it for 5 years and it was, erm lets say, not the best thing I ever soldered :) I also didn't know and never checked that connecting Ti calculators is supported on Linux. Attached are two patches. One is to remove the postinst script (there's even no update-devfsd script in unstable) and adjusts the deb_helper dependency and the other patch fixes module_param() for newer kernel versions. Now that I know there I could connect my Ti85 in Linux I might consider to resolder a new cable. However, I'm pretty sure I don't have time to that at least until February 2007. Do you think tidev can stay in unstable until that time? I would report back in February or March and ask to maintain it.
