+  FBTFT
+=========
+
+Linux Framebuffer drivers for small TFT LCD display modules.
+The module 'fbtft' makes writing drivers for some of these displays very easy.
+
+Development is done on a Raspberry Pi running the Raspbian "wheezy" distribution.
+
+INSTALLATION
+  Download kernel sources
+
+  From Linux 3.15  
+    cd drivers/video/fbdev/fbtft
+    git clone https://github.com/notro/fbtft.git
+    
+    Add to drivers/video/fbdev/Kconfig:   source "drivers/video/fbdev/fbtft/Kconfig"
+    Add to drivers/video/fbdev/Makefile:  obj-y += fbtft/
+  
+  Before Linux 3.15  
+    cd drivers/video
+    git clone https://github.com/notro/fbtft.git
+    
+    Add to drivers/video/Kconfig:   source "drivers/video/fbtft/Kconfig"
+    Add to drivers/video/Makefile:  obj-y += fbtft/
+  
+  Enable driver(s) in menuconfig and build the kernel
