[PATCH 0/4] drm/tinydrm: Add support for Pervasive Displays RePaper monochrome e-ink panels

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This adds support for the 1.44", 1.9", 2.0" and 2.7" Pervasive Diplays
monochrome e-ink panels. The code was taken from the userspace driver
available through repaper.org.

Monochrome
Since drm doesn't have support for monochrome, I have added a helper to
convert XRGB8888 to greyscale8. XRGB8888 is very common so that's why I
chose that format, but maybe some YUV format is better suited, I don't
know. There are some greyscale e-ink panels, so that's why I chose
greyscale instead of going directly to monochrome.

I have hacked together a python drm library to make it easy to use these
displays, mainly targeted at the maker community:
