So i'd start with copying your "working" kernel config and copy it to the "working" debian setup.. http://www.waveshare.com/wiki/BB_Black_XXX_CAPE_Source_Code I don't see that anyone has submited support for that lcd for the commuinty.. https://github.com/beagleboard/linux/tree/3.8/firmware/capes Looking at the schematic, it would be a pretty simplistic compared to other capes for new users to port. ;) Regards, -- Robert Nelson https://rcn-ee.com/ -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
