What Works
TBD.
What Doesn't
GPS
In short: it needs to be reverse engineered, whilst running Harmattan (from closed-source binary gps blobs)
- Chip is a bcm4751
- Kernel driver at http://lists.meego.com/pipermail/meego-kernel/2010-October/000740.html, any other sources?
- http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/linux/kernel/1265993?do=post_view_threaded#1265993 has a newer copyright date
- NB: driver is already in the nemomobile kernel tree (github.com:nemomobile/kernel-adaptation-n950-n9.git) - just not the 3.5 branch
- Chip speaks a Nokia protocol called MEIF, protocol documentation is not openly available
- Some reverse engineering notes at http://redmine.replicant.us/projects/replicant/wiki/Broadcom4751GPS
- Needs tie-in to gypsy after the basic hardware is enabled so Qt Mobility can talk to it
