At the moment I think we should use a lcd controller from Epson (S1D13700 or S1D13305) since they are working on Linux framebuffer device driver for it.
Well, check carefully. As I recall, those parts have been discontinued. Although there is software, you may not be able to build products once it is done. I'd suggest looking first at Fujitsu, and second at Silicon Motion. Both of these companies have claimed to be dedicated to providing the embedded parts for a long time.
Has anybody else implemented a LCD into a mpc8xx (not 823) board successfully ?
Of course. It has an internal LCD/video controller, and there should be drivers in various kernels. Thanks. -- Dan
