From 70e840499aae90be1de542894062ad2899d23642 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Miguel Ojeda Sandonis Date: Sat, 10 Feb 2007 01:44:32 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] drivers: add LCD support 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.
