The documentation has been moved to:

  http://maemo.org/community/wiki/howto_kernelcompilation/

But here there's not the same documentation... i think some stuff has
been lost on the wiki change in maemo.org ://

They refer to this port as a serial port where to debug the kernel and
device bootup or use it as a standard serial port.

The connection should be at 8N1,115200.

And the only pins "documented" are the same as in NSLU:

Pin 1   3.3V (pin 1 has a white stripe next to it)
Pin 2   RXD (from serial terminal program to NSLU2)
Pin 3   TXD (from NSLU2 to serial terminal program)
Pin 4   GND

Which in the n770 are:

1 2 3 4 5 6
 7 8 9 A B

Pin 9   RxD (Nokia receive input)
Pin A   TxD (Nokia transmit output)
Pin 8 and 3 are the ground.
The outputs are evidently 3.3v

What sounds strange to me is that I remember to have only 9 pins, not 11.
(i have no n770 in front of me)

and ..wtf it have two ground pins? As I said, in the mobo the V pin is
directly connected to the battery, which anoys me because of the power
consumption.. I think this is a design problem that only affects to
developers.

About the cal-tool there's nothing interesting there. It uses
libcal.so.0.3.0 for all the magical stuff. I will get a look there

Here some more info about RD

  http://maemo.org/community/wiki/RdMode

Probably the first bootloader uses the retu chip to handle this serial
port to support jtag or cold flashing-only. And later (if the rd-flag
of serial-port is enabled) enable the serial port as is and make it
available from the main cpu. (just ideas.. not sure)
