Hi Ryan, Just a quick head up. Most of this stuff is new for me so I'm learning slowly! But I'm progressing. I've installed xbian and squeezelite, and it works fine. Fighting a bit with ALSA at the moment (the xbian user cannot access the soundcard) but I'm used to that. I'll build your jivelite then. I understand the wiring of the display. I'm now looking for a SSD1322 SPI driver for the Raspberry and I found your FBTFT driver here: https://github.com/presslab-us/fbtft I think it is ready for the Raspberry so I just have to understand which GPIO pins you used for the SSD1322 for the wiring and then build it. My only question mark is: how to respect the power on/off sequences recommended by the display manufacturer? > > Power-on sequence: > 1. Apply power to VCI. > 2. Wait 300ms. > 3.

Power off VDD. > There are some libraries available here: http://www.digilentinc.com/Products/Detail.cfm?Prod=PMOD-OLED Should I use them for the driver?
