Hello, Sascha Hauer a ?crit :quoted
The following series adds i.MX51 framebuffer support based on the IPUv3. It is not perfect but I decided it is good enough to open it for a wider audience and collect first reviews. I tested this on a babbage board using both outputs (VGA/DVI) with different resolutions up to 1680x1050 and different colour depths. I also tested it on one custom board using a fixed display setting.This driver is also working fine for me on a custom i.MX51 board with a 800x480 18 bits TFT LCD (16bpp mode). The only strange thing I noticed was a kind of uggly sprite/artefact (32x32, I would say) appearing at the same time as the Linux console. I think it may be related to a hardware cursor badly (?) initialised, but I didn't find a fix yet. It disappears when I launch a graphical application (Qt or SDL).
It may be the penguin, but I remember a similar report also talkling about hardware cursors. I can't reproduce this. You could search for cursor in the IPU section of the manual and play with the corresponding registers.
