Hi,

I'm trying to get a framebuffer device running on an mpc823 board
(tqm823). I'm a little confused (not unusual :). Which device should
/dev/fb0 be? fbmem.c opens a device using major 29. But lcd823.c also
opens a device using major 62. Do I even need all of the standard fb
stuff? Or can I simply insmod lcd823.o (built to run as a module) and
get things to work?

Thanks for any help, Kyle.
