Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TFP410
Tool/software: Linux
Hello,
I'm using the am335x-evm board and want to develop new display driver for a Himax Hx-8238 LCD. I replaced the primary touch screen on am335-evm board with the Hx-8238 touch screen. Without any software change, after power on the board, I can see some distorted pictures and texts displayed on the new LCD. This certifies the hardware change is good.
I searched on the e2e forum and found below post:
From this post I got a solution using fbtft
https://github.com/notro/fbtft.
According to the TI Wiki http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Linux_Core_LCD_Controller_User_Guide.
The fbdev display driver is currently obsolete (has been since ti-linux-3.14.y), and is not actively maintained any more. Please use LCDC DRM driver instead.
I want to know whether the above fbtft driver is supported on the latest processor SDK?
Another question is how can I use the LCDC DRM driver to develop the driver for Hx-8238 device?
Is it possible anybody can provide me instruction or reference code for above two questions?
thanks ahead!
William
