[U-Boot-Users] PATCH: Driver for the Epson SED13806 graphic controler

Hello everybody,
Please find attached a patch that add support for the Epson SED13806 graphic controller. This controller is used on the Embedded Planet ECCX daughter board. Please see the RPXClassic.h file for the details of the configuration.
This patch also adds the support of the BMP logo in cfb_console driver.
From now, the cfb_console driver
was only able to display the logo included in the file logo_linux.h. The MPC8xx LCD driver use the logo included in bmp_logo.h. This file is very easy to create because the tool bmp_logo is included in U-boot. I saw that the video driver for the MPC8xx use another logo created by easy_logo. I think that it would be nie to use only one file format in all the graphic drivers. To use the BMP logo with the cfb_console driver, add #define CONFIG_VIDEO_BMP_LOGO in the board config file (see RPXClassic.h).
This patch fixes also a warning in mkimage.c.
CHANGELOG: * Patch by Pierre Aubert , 20 Nov 2002 Add driver for Epson SED13806 graphic controller. Add support for BMP logos in cfb_console driver.
Best regards

Added, thanks.

Is there any reason so this driver is restricted to the RPXClassic board? Should we not move the driver into the drivers/ directory instead?

The The RPXClassic specific part of the driver (init of ECCX board registers, config of the screen attached to the board) is in the RPXClassic directory. The generic part of the driver (handling of the Epson controller) is in the drivers/sed13806.c file. This driver isn't restricted to te RPXClassic board, I use it for a custom board.
