Hello,
I have been trying to get an LCD panel going connected to my BBB.
Building the kernel with my own device tree file I can get the kernel and
rootfs up and fbv an image to the display.
The kernel is based on the 4.4.38 and patches as identified on
RobertCNelson's wiki, all seems to be OK.
All boots fine and when connecting HDMI I can blit bmp's to the frame
buffer. I then decided to connect the LCD panel (5" 480x800) and I could
also send a bitmap to the frame buffer although I was getting an issue
sometimes about a timeout waiting for the lcd.
The dts has the following in:
/{
panel {
compatible = "ti,tilcdc,panel";
status = "okay";
pinctrl-names = "default";
pinctrl-0 = <&lcd_pins_default>;
panel-info {

};

};
};
};
};

&lcdc {

ti,wire-config = <0x00 0x11 0x22 0x33>;
};
adc {
ti,adc-channels = <4 5 6 7>;
};
};
A bit of digging seemed to show that I needed to define the fb, which I
have done.
fb {
compatible = "ti,am33xx-tilcdc";
reg = <0x4830e000 0x1000>;
interrupt-parent = <&intc>;
interrupts = <36>;
ti,hwmods = "lcdc";
};
Since updating the dts file I now get a warning at boot:

I am wondering if I am using the correct way of driving the LCD ?
I cannot find any documentation in the kernel for the tilcdc and frame
buffer, that seemed to be depricated in 3.1x kernels.
If there is a new-er better way to drive the LCD still having an fb dev
node so I can ultimately use Qt to drive the display I would love to know
how.
Thanks
Marc
