If there is a different mailing list I should follow, let me know.

Sure, The same panel is used on these these two boards: logicpd-som-lv-baseboard.dtsi logicpd-torpedo-37xx-devkit-28.dts A second panel is used on: logicpd-torpedo-37xx-devkit.dts which has the LCD timings defined in logicpd-torpedo-baseboard.dtsi The am3517-evm also uses the same timings, but the gpio enables are different. The da850-evm uses the same panel as the am3517-evm, but it's not using the same video driver, and I haven't had a chance to see if that driver still exists or not. Thanks for your quick response. :-) Sorry if my e-mail came across angrily, it wasn't my intention. adam > -- > Regards, > > Laurent Pinchart
