Alright, they're attached this time.
I hope this'll do for now. :-)

-Readme for Linux device driver for the Texas Instruments SilverLink cable
-and direct USB cable provided by some TI's handhelds.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Author: Romain Liévin & Julien Blache
-Homepage: http://lpg.ticalc.org/prj_usb
-
-INTRODUCTION:
-
-This is a driver for the TI-GRAPH LINK USB (aka SilverLink) cable, a cable
-designed by TI for connecting their TI8x/9x calculators to a computer
-(PC or Mac usually). It has been extended to support the USB port offered by
-some latest TI handhelds (TI84+ and TI89 Titanium).
-
-If you need more information, please visit the 'SilverLink drivers' homepage
-at the above URL.
-
-WHAT YOU NEED:
-
-A TI calculator of course and a program capable to communicate with your
-calculator.
-TiLP will work for sure (since I am his developer !). yal92 may be able to use
-it by changing tidev for tiglusb (may require some hacking...).
-
-HOW TO USE IT:
-
-You must have first compiled USB support, support for your specific USB host
-controller (UHCI or OHCI).
-
-Next, (as root) from your appropriate modules directory (lib/modules/2.5.XX):
-
- insmod usb/usbcore.o
- insmod usb/usb-uhci.o <OR> insmod usb/ohci-hcd.o
- insmod tiglusb.o
-
-If it is not already there (it usually is), create the device:
-
- mknod /dev/tiglusb0 c 115 16
-
-You will have to set permissions on this device to allow you to read/write
-from it:
-
- chmod 666 /dev/tiglusb0
-
-Now you are ready to run a linking program such as TiLP. Be sure to configure
-it properly (RTFM).
-
-MODULE PARAMETERS:
-
- You can set these with: insmod tiglusb NAME=VALUE
- There is currently no way to set these on a per-cable basis.
-
- NAME: timeout
- TYPE: integer
- DEFAULT: 15
- DESC: Timeout value in tenth of seconds. If no data is available once this
- time has expired then the driver will return with a timeout error.
-
-QUIRKS:
-
-The following problem seems to be specific to the link cable since it appears
-on all platforms (Linux, Windows, Mac OS-X).
-
-In some very particular cases, the driver returns with success but
-without any data. The application should retry a read operation at least once.
-
-HOW TO CONTACT US:
-
-You can email me at roms@lpg.ticalc.org. Please prefix the subject line
-with "TIGLUSB: " so that I am certain to notice your message.
-You can also mail JB at jb@jblache.org: he has written the first release of
-this driver but he better knows the Mac OS-X driver.
-
-CREDITS:
-
-The code is based on dabusb.c, printer.c and scanner.c !
-The driver has been developed independently of Texas Instruments Inc.
