1 FreeCalypso Selenite is a side branch off the mainline FC Magnetite firmware.
2 The principal changes from Magnetite are:
3
4 * Only modem functionality is supported. FC Magnetite includes TI's C-Sample
5 and D-Sample demo/prototype UI code and work in progress toward our own
6 FreeCalypso Libre Dumbphone; this code is not included and this functionality
7 is explicitly unsupported in Selenite.
8
9 * Only the hybrid modem configuration is supported, using the new G23M PS and
10 ACI code from TCS3.2/LoCosto, not any of the legacy configurations that used
11 the blob-laden version from TCS211-20070608.
12
13 * The old version of Nucleus used in TI's TCS211 program (binary sans source)
14 is being replaced with FreeNucleus by XVilka. OSL (GPF to Nucleus glue layer)
15 is the source-reconstructed version.
16
17 * The tree layout and the build system are structured in a such way that it
18 will be possible to build either with TI's original TMS470 compiler or with
19 gcc.
20
21 FC Selenite is currently a work in progress. The configuration in which the
22 new version of Nucleus is built with the old TMS470 compiler needs to be put
23 together as a transitional step, and only after that step we'll be in the right
24 state to begin the work of porting to gcc.
