Monochrome LCD

LCD

The 128x64 px. monochrome LCD is connected to the system via SPI and uses a userspace application to format the data, and a driver to send it to the device. The LCD can be used as a generic framebuffer with this setup. The userspace application and driver are included by default, but must be manually run to set up.

modprobe ts-st7565p-fb
/usr/local/bin/lcd-helper

Two example binaries are also included in order to demonstrate the LCD's capabilities.

/usr/local/bin/cairo-test

Is a simple Cairo demonstration that draws a box, a line, a circle, and some text on to the display.

/usr/local/bin/bounce-test

Will display a bouncing box on the screen.

See the sources for more information on these demos and how they operate.
