This driver is also working fine for me on a custom i.MX51 board with a
800x480 18 bits TFT LCD (16bpp mode).

The only strange thing I noticed was a kind of uggly sprite/artefact
(32x32, I would say) appearing at the same time as the Linux console. I
think it may be related to a hardware cursor badly (?) initialised, but
I didn't find a fix yet.
It disappears when I launch a graphical application (Qt or SDL).

Regards,
Julien
