  FBTFT
=========

2015-01-19
The FBTFT drivers are now in the Linux kernel staging tree: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/gregkh/staging.git/tree/drivers/staging/fbtft?h=staging-testing
Development in this github repo has ceased.


Linux Framebuffer drivers for small TFT LCD display modules.
The module 'fbtft' makes writing drivers for some of these displays very easy.

Development is done on a Raspberry Pi running the Raspbian "wheezy" distribution.
