1.14 SPI LCD support? #2

Open gavan1 opened 9 months ago

gavan1 commented 9 months ago

There is only one image online (licheerv_d1_1.14lcd_ub2004) that has the 1.14 LCD screen working. Provided by Sipeed via a Mega Cloud link but you need the Pheonix tools to burn to an SD card.

That ubuntu image was built before the release of the dock so it has no networking... Here is a link to the SIPEED Chinese dev docs, has some instructions on including the driver.

I was hoping that Buildroot had an easier approach for this?

I set up this repository when the boards first came out and I was playing with them. It's not anything official, and I haven't worked on it much so it's extremely out of date. I believe some support for these boards has been moved in to the main buildroot project and I expect they will work better than this repository, although I haven't had a chance to try them out. But I would start with the latest release of buildroot and see how their configs work without using this plugin.

SkiffOS now supports this board and display as per a user request.

Hopefully this helps!
