Hi Heiko,

for my opinion this clone of the linux-driver is very overloaded and 
difficult to use/configure.
With the words 'small-is-beautiful' and 'keep-it-simple' i've wrote a 
few lines which do the minimum:
- configure raster-controller
- setup DMA
- powerON Display

maybe we can use the small-version in other projects too.

best regards,
Hannes
