Harald Welte laforge at gnumonks.orgHi All! At my OpenBSC / OsmocomBB talk here at the Embedded Linux Conference Europe, one of the attendees (Marcin, see Cc) came to me after the talk and told me he had recently done a u-boot and Linux kernel port to the MT6235 (that's the ARM926 based chipsets found in the touchscreen MTK phones). He said he has no understanding of GSM or the existing MTK firmware, but is interested in working together with us to try to make the GSM part work. I think that chipset is very intesting, as we could implement the layer1 inside the Linux kernel (and submit that mainline, yay!) and run our layer2 and layer3 implementations as userspace processes on the Linux system, together with the user interface. The performance of those devices should be somewhere between the Openmoko GTA01 and GTA02, and the GSM stack is certainly not going to eat away a lot of the CPU either. I have asked Marcin to write mail to the OsmocomBB mailing list on where we can find the code. He has so far downloaded the code using JTAG. Combining his code with our ramloader might remove that JTAG dependency... Marcin: if you want to push your u-boot / kernel to git.osmocom.org, or want a separate trac installation for your mtk-linux work, pleaes let me know, I'd be happy to host that.
