Of course this should be possible. If you send me a datasheet, and you're willing to do some testing, I'd try to write the driver 'blind'.

Of course you could send a display, too :-)

Unfortunately I've got only one of these displays, otherwise I'd send you one.

If I'll get a driver for this display, I'm willing to test it detailed :-)

I tried it with the T6963 driver, but the only thing it displayd were some pixels flying around.

To which email address may I send the datasheet?

Regards

Richard

found on datasheet at http://www.selectronic.fr/includes_selectronic/pdf/Afficheurs_LCD/8690-2.pdf

i worked on it somm times ago (1 or 2 years) , if i find the code i'll send it to the project.

it was my second and last C prog after "hello world" so it's dirty and (too ) stupid code mayby not usefull ? it was working only 1 over 3 or 4 times. (timing probleme ? )
and sure not coded in the way of this project

I think that in graphlcd-base there is a driver for ks0108

but how to link this driver with lcd4linux ?

I'm able to get some used displays type POWERTIP PG12864-J, datasheet may be found using google. 128x64 dots, LED backlight.

Needing a driver for lcd4linux. Anyone out there ? Sending one or two displays is no problem, if the resulting driver will be released to lcd4linux soon.

Got any solution yet? I've got one of those displays and I want to attach it to my server. Looking at the specifications, it is rather dumb and has no text capatibilities. Messing around with it, it seems that it just stores the bit combinations from the data lines to its memory and just displays them as pixels (0 off; 1 on). So the driver just has to convert everything to a bitmap to display and daisy chain it to the display.

Any news so far ?

Still got some displays here. Sending by DHL no problem, when driver will be released within few weeks after. I'm desperate for it, my homebrew linux-box project is waiting...

ciao Kai

Hi there, I'm also looking for something working for this KS107/8 (CrystalFontz? CFAG12864B display on parallel port) (There is no Crystalfontz parallel port display supported on actual L4L ?)

I found this should this help you to make a display driver ?

I'd love to make it work !

(I apologize for any mistakes I could make in english, this is not my native language)
