No way. Each controller would have different wirings, pins, in-outs,

only need to make few little changes, but that is unsure).


that's what I was trying to point out. I was wondering if you could
make your driver a little more generic so another lcd could use your
driver as is.

Well, you were right about mmaping, but you weren't about
"info->fix.smem_start". smem_start expects a physical address. RAM
addresses can't be mmapped as usual

Sorry I don't understand your last sentence. Can you explain please ?
