Oh, interesting. I wonder why that couldn't had been a fbdev driver then using FB_VISUAL_MONO01? I'll reword then the commit message before apply to the following instead:It is :) .type = FB_TYPE_PACKED_PIXELS, .visual = FB_VISUAL_MONO10,
Ah! Should had read the driver before commenting then :)
The original distinction was more about having a place where to put small, simple displays that were not your usual "screen", where you would typically draw a custom UI, probably controlled with a few custom buttons, etc.
Got it. Then that's yet another argument for adding the auxdisplay drivers under the same "Graphics support" menu.
