Add support for auxiliary displays, the ks0108 LCD controller, the cfag12864b LCD and adds a framebuffer device: cfag12864bfb. - Add a "auxdisplay/" folder in "drivers/" for auxiliary display drivers. - Add support for the ks0108 LCD Controller as a device driver. (uses parport interface) - Add support for the cfag12864b LCD as a device driver. (uses ks0108 LCD Controller driver) - Add a framebuffer device called cfag12864bfb. (uses cfag12864b LCD driver) - Add the usual Documentation, includes, Makefiles, Kconfigs, MAINTAINERS, CREDITS... - Miguel Ojeda will maintain all the stuff above.

|
|
If you have a LCD controlled by one or more KS0108
|
|
controllers, say Y. You will need also another more specific
|
|
driver for your LCD.
|
|
|
|
Depends on Parallel Port support. If you say Y at
|
|
parport, you will be able to compile this as a module (M)
|
|
and built-in as well (Y).
|
|
|
|
To compile this as a module, choose M here:
|
|
the module will be called ks0108.
|
|
|
|
If unsure, say N.
|

|
|
---help---
|
|
The address of the parallel port where the LCD is connected.
|
|
|
|
The first standard parallel port address is 0x378.
|
|
The second standard parallel port address is 0x278.
|
|
The third standard parallel port address is 0x3BC.
|
|
|
|
You can specify a different address if you need.
|
|
|
|
If you don't know what I'm talking about, load the parport module,
|
|
and execute "dmesg" or "cat /proc/ioports". You can see there how
|
|
many parallel ports are present and which address each one has.
|
|
|
|
Usually you only need to use 0x378.
|
|
|
|
If you compile this as a module, you can still override this
|
|
using the module parameters.

---help---
|
|
Amount of time the ks0108 should wait between each control write
|
|
to the parallel port.
|
|
|
|
If your driver seems to miss random writings, increment this.
|
|
|
|
If you don't know what I'm talking about, ignore it.
|

If you have a Crystalfontz 128x64 2-color LCD, cfag12864b Series,
|
|
say Y. You also need the ks0108 LCD Controller driver.
|
|
|
|
For help about how to wire your LCD to the parallel port,
|
|
check Documentation/auxdisplay/cfag12864b
|
|
|
|
Depends on the x86 arch and the framebuffer support.
|
|
|
|
The LCD framebuffer driver can be attached to a console.
|
|
It will work fine. However, you can't attach it to the fbdev driver
|
|
of the xorg server.
|
|
|
|
To compile this as a module, choose M here:
|
|
the modules will be called cfag12864b and cfag12864bfb.
|
|
|
|
If unsure, say N.
|
|
|

config CFAG12864B_RATE
|
|
int "Refresh rate (hertz)"
|

depends on CFAG12864B
|
|
default "20"
|
|
---help---
|
|
Refresh rate of the LCD.
|
|
|
|
As the LCD is not memory mapped, the driver has to make the work by
|
|
software. This means you should be careful setting this value higher.
|
|
If your CPUs are really slow or you feel the system is slowed down,
|
|
decrease the value.
|
|
|
|
Be careful modifying this value to a very high value:
|
|
You can freeze the computer, or the LCD maybe can't draw as fast as you
|
|
are requesting.
|
|
|
|
If you don't know what I'm talking about, ignore it.
|
|
|
|
If you compile this as a module, you can still override this
|
|
value using the module parameters.
