Note
The Linux console driver for the S1D13505 Embedded RAMDAC LCD/CRT Controller is
intended as “reference” source code for OEMs developing for Linux, and supports 4, 8, and
16 bit-per-pixel color depths.
A Graphical User Interface (GUI) such as Gnome can obtain the frame buffer address from
this driver allowing the Linux GUI the ability to update the display.
The console driver is designed around a common configuration include file called
s1d13505.h, which is generated by the configuration utility 13505CFG. This design allows
for easy customization of display type, clocks, decode addresses, rotation, etc. by OEMs.
For further information on 13505CFG, see the 13505CFG Configuration Program User
Manual, document number X23A-B-001-xx.
This document and the source code for the Linux console drivers are updated as appro-
priate. Please check the Epson Research and Development website at
http://www.erd.epson.com for the latest revisions or before beginning any development.
We appreciate your comments on our documentation. Please contact us via e-mail at

The Linux console driver is provided as “reference” source code only. The driver is in-
tended to provide a basis for OEMs to develop their own drivers for Linux.
