change 120, 30 to big display dimension (row by col(byte)) within functions, and 4800 to (row time col) (Note: different pins for spi on mega)</p>

how would i need to modify your code to run it on the 320x240 Kent display?<br>
thanks, stephan.</p>

However, there is no code available to render text on this display. Does anyone know how to make this display text, or even better, some graphics?</p>

Don't forget the CPHA bit for SPI mode:<br>
SPCR = (1 << SPE) | (1 << MSTR) | (1 << SPR0) | (1 << SPR1) | (1<<CPHA);</p>

Replace this line:<br>

with this:<br>

And then I broke it. I managed to drive it into a state where the only SPI command it appears to accept is a software reset. How do I know the software reset "works"? Because the screen kind of flickers.<br>
Can anyone help?</p>

The datasheet shows how you use the pins - as soon as I get some cable for this I'll hook it up and let you know how I get on.<br>
SparkFun - suggest you stock/sell cables with this if the connector is going to be soldered to the board?</p>
