I use i3 so I did not even note that right now atmel_mxt_ts no longer works for me in next.. But yeah I can point to screens and activate them. So far I have not needed anything more complex. > Ah, thanks for the pointer. Built-in battery is very bad for > debugging, and very bad when PM is not quite finished.

But we still need to somehow produce sysrq with power button + volume down. In this case those are in separate drivers, gpio-keys for volume down and then cpcap-pwrbutton. I'm also pretty sure the PMIC supports powerdown on pressing down the power button some some seconds but I have not found that bit so far :) > Does ofonod support the modems in an useful way?

The audio mixer is on CPCAP PMIC, and I think mdm6600 modem audio needs help from the Linux kernel on the applications processor as it probably goes to it first then to CPCAP PMIC. I guess it's possible that mdm6600 audio goes directly to CPCAP PMIC too. I believe LTE modem is connected to the second SPI interface on the CPCAP PMIC and can use it directly for audio depending on how Linux kernel configures the PMIC secondary interface device access. What seems to be a similar PMIC for the CPCAP internal devices is documented in MC13783UG.pdf on NXP site so that might be worth looking at for the audio overview. > It looks like nice machine.

Sure, my n950 just got so worn down I was afraid I don't have any replacement. And we need some kind of potential community upgrade for n900/n9/n950 anyways while waiting for better devices :) Regards, Tony
