Hi Mickey, I received my N900 some days ago and plan to add support for it in FSO. Some points: * Audio chip is TWL4030 (same as palm pre according to your wiki) * Accelerometer is LIS302DL (same as freerunner) * Vibrator is controlled via led interface (like on the freerunner) * GPS is connected via gsm modem - I haven't checked the details yet * There's a proximity and light sensor - How to handle these in FSO? * What to do about the cameras (video/photo)? What about tagging photos (geotag, time, whatever)? Cameras are Video4Linux devices on N900 btw. * There's an FM receiver, but I guess we can ignore this one for now. We need a multimedia daemon for this, which could also handle DVB-H on other devices. * There's an FM transmitter. There should be support for it in the new audio manager. It is available as /dev/radio0 on n900. * Keyboard LEDs, status LED (exported via led interface on sysfs) * Button & Keyboard Support - I did not check this yet * Video Cable Detection - I did not check this yet either So I guess N900 support is mostly about fso-gsmd. Today I checked about any docs about GSM in N900 - Nokia commited their own IP-like kernel interface for this (Phonet). There is an existing driver for ofono to check how communication works and get information about the magic bytes. -- Sebastian
