+Calypso modem usage
+===================
+
+On the Openmoko Freerunner phone, the Calypso modem is presented by
+the kernel as serial device /dev/ttySAC0.  To allow oFono to
+autodetect and use this, a simple udev rule is needed:
+
+KERNEL=="ttySAC0", ENV{OFONO_DRIVER}="calypso"
+
+You can put this in any file in /lib/udev/rules.d.  A logical choice
+is the "55-openmoko-gta01-gta02.rules" file, if it exists in your
+Freerunner distribution.
+
+With this rule in place:
+
+- oFono will detect the Calypso modem when it starts up, and the
+  `list-modems' test script will show this, but will not power it up
+
+- the `enable-modem' test script can be used to power it up
+
+- a subsequent `list-modems' will show lots of information, including
+  network registration.

patch has been applied, but you might also wanna add this to Makefile.am
so it becomes part of the tarballs.

Thanks, good point, I've sent another patch to do that.

it is spelled oFono.

Same here. It is oFono.

Since we had this discussion on IRC. Has this rule been proven to do the
right thing? Even in case of the weird renaming of the original serial
port?

Sorry, will fix in the next version of this patch.  (All occurrences.)

Well I've certainly tested that it works for me, yes - on the 2.6.34
kernel, which is the newest working kernel for the Freerunner.

I'm not sure what you mean here.  If you're thinking of the difference
between "/devices/platform/s3c2440-uart.0/tty/ttySAC0" and
"/dev/ttySAC0": my understanding is that the 2.6.34 kernel decides on
the ttySAC0 name itself, and hence this name isn't a result of any udev
renaming.  Does that help at all>?
