Hi Francisco,

sorry for the late answer. I'm very short on time at the moment.

I've never seen this display before. From what I can read from the data
sheet, it doesn't use any of the standard LCD controllers (HD44780,
T6963, ...)

But of course it would be possible to write a driver for it.

Is the display a graphical one? If so, maybe it would be better to write
a serdisplib driver (so it would be useful for other applications too,
not only for lcd4linux). But if you want to give it a try to write a
lcd4linux driver, surely I will help you.

I've never seen such a contrast circuit. But using a negative contrast
voltage is quite common (T6963 does so).


bye, Michael
