But the problem here is due to lack of information about the panel, the init process command opcode data values seem to based on the panel timings values. This look weird and ie reason for going into separate panel driver with different compatible. _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
