Is it compatible with Armbian? #123

I was just wondering if this driver is compatible with Armbian, specifically on Banana Pi Zero. I am using the Waveshare 240x240 hat to make a handheld gaming device. I didn't find any info, but I needed to know so I wouldn't just waste 20 dollars.

I have not used either Banana Pi or Armbian, but I presume it would not work on either. Fbcp-ili9341 depends on the Broadcom SoC and raspbian DispmanX stack. Not sure if DispmanX is available on Armbian, and according to http://wiki.banana-pi.org/Banana_Pi_BPI-M2_ZERO looks like it is an Allwinner system and not a Broadcom one.

It may be possible to port the driver to that environment though, if someone wants to take a stab.
