Well, menelaus is a friendly name now that I know what it is but it was difficult to find its datasheet without knowing the public name used by the manufacturer, it seemed like a nokia's own chip. Also iirc if you open the device you will only see the TWLxxx name on the chip. I see TWLxxx is now mentioned in the Kconfig so I won't insist. Cheers
