Bug#362162: O: tidev-modules -- Sources for drivers for Texas Instruments calculators link cables
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
Hi,
I intend to orphan the tidev-modules package.
The package description is:
This package will be useful to you if you own a Texas Instruments calculator
and want to use one of the following link cables :
o official "black cable" from Texas Instruments (BlackLink)
o home-made serial link
o home-made parallel cable
o official GraphLink USB from Texas Instruments (SilverLink)
.
This package contains the sources of the drivers, which you need to compile
before using it. Please read /usr/share/doc/tidev-source/README.Debian
for more informations on how to achieve that.
.
You must have the parport driver built either in your kernel or as a
module to use the tipar driver. You need a kernel with the USB core
to use the tiglusb driver.
.
You'll also need a linking software such as TiLP to communicate with
your calculator.
You will probably be interested in the related, also orphaned, packages:
tilp, tiemu, skinedit, libtifiles0, libticables3, libticalcs4
JB.
