Hi Huacai,
The driver which Sudip is using is our latest driver. It's a mix driver which can support SM712/SM750/SM502 etc...
The driver in http://dev.lemote.com/files/upload/lm/kernel/testing/sm750fb.tar.gz can only support SM750. It's an old driver.
I will visit Changshu lemote next week. We can discuss more about it.
Best Regards,
Teddy Wang

Hi, Sudip,
1, We have checked that SM7xxfb works perfectly on Yeeloong 8089.
2, Yes, we are using SM750 in our new products.
3, I found that my sm750 driver is better than yours, for example, my driver show Linux logo at boot time, but your driver can't.
4, I hope you can work sm7xx/sm750 in parallel. Of course I can update sm750 driver by myself, but I think you are much familiar with this.
BTW, I hope Teddy Wang can give some comments.
Huacai

I have not yet seen the code but just a quick check of the readme gives
the impression that yours is a newer version than the one I got from
them. Adding Teddy Wang of Silicon Mortion in cc for his comments on
this. I think he will be the most competent person to comment which is
the best code to be used.

I am still working with SM712 (sm7xxfb) and not started with SM750 yet.
Few more things are pending with sm7xxfb, after that i will place the
request to merge it with fbdev and will start with SM750.
Are you using SM750 in any of your products? I knew that you have been
using SM712 in your Yeeloong series.
And I have a request: will it be possible for you to check my next SM712
patch in an Yeeloong... I tried to purchase one for my testing, but the
price in our indian currency was too high and since this I do just for
my interest and not part of my dayjob, so there is no funding also :(
