Re: [Lcd4linux-devel] Writing new driver

[paul k. <pau...@xs...>]

Hi Harry,

That looks like a nice rack mounted server. :-)
Where to start?
try to find more information on this LCM-100 display. how is it 
connected? How is it supported right now?
then you take the code of one of the existing drivers that is closest to 
the LCM-100, adapt it and insert it as a new display driver

Sounds simple, doesn't it :-)

User space programming is probably sufficient knowledge to do it.

kind regards,

Paul
