Hi,

fbdev is (more or less) maintained, but it's a deprecated framework. All new Linux display drivers should be done on DRM.

What about no-mmu platforms? DRM has a big fat MMU dependency in the kconfig, is there a way to write DRM driver for such devices?

I guess not.

Then again, I don't see why DRM would have a hard dependency to MMU, if the work is done to make DRM work optionally without MMU. How much work that is, I have no idea.
