I've got also a raspberrypi request - can we enable fbtft module in the build fbtft on github ?
Its included in standard kernel and allows for use of cheap lcd displays (around 10$ for 320x480 4.3inch ili9488 display in china ) through gpio which are not used when you use your raspberry for kodi.
My raspberry is not connected to a monitor - my libreelec on raspberry B+ is used as a tvheadend server so it don't have a monitor tv connected
