MattTheGeek 99 Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 I think a Wiki is a needed feature on 43oh. zeke 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bluehash 1,581 Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 I'll look into options. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lastaid 15 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Love the idea, i would have suggested a "Tutorial" section, but a wiki would cover that and much more Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zeke 693 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 The first article I would want to put into it is a howto on how to get the LP working with Elpotronix stand alone programming software without installing all of 1.2Gigs of CCS just to get the bloody drivers. :crazy: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bluehash 1,581 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Did you look into your CCS directory under drivers? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
zeke 693 Posted February 1, 2012 Share Posted February 1, 2012 Not this morning. The scenario is this: my customer wants to use the LP to do factory floor programming. He doesn't want to install 1.2Gigs worth of CCSV5 just to get the LP drivers. Why should he? He wants just the drivers to make the LP go. That's it. No more. No less. I guess it's up to me to solve this problem by making an unofficial drivers release package for him. That's kinda dumb in my opinion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cubeberg 540 Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 I'd love to see a wiki. It would be a much better resource for BP's than a forum thread. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Automate 69 Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 This would be great. I promise to contribute to a 43oh Wiki. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rockets4kids 204 Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 It is worth noting that there already *is* a wiki for the MSP430: http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/MSP430 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cubeberg 540 Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 I don't really see a great place there to document booster packs (although there are a few pages). Since the ones sold in the store are often community supported - I think it'd be a better idea to have the wiki part of the site as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Since hopefully most BoosterPacks will also be usable with the C2000 and Stellaris LaunchPads, the Wiki could be shared with those forums also. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobG 1,892 Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 I agree, a wiki page for each project, especially BP, would be awesome. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There is nothing preventing anyone from doing this on the already existing Wiki. The addition of yet another Wiki will only serve to dilute both of them. Until such time as there is a problem using TI's wiki, I strongly suggest that all efforts go into making that the de-facto source for information on the msp430.

Just a point here: TI also has forums, yet the 43oh forums are doing quite well. I believe this is for good reason, and that a 43oh wiki would flourish as well. As RobG pointed out: ...a wiki page for each project, especially BP, would be awesome. Keeping the wiki for a project connected with the forum where that project originated seems like a natural idea.
