Please use this thread for posting requests for unsupported dpfs.

First thing to do before tinkering with the display:
MAKE A BACKUP OF THE ORIGINAL FIRMWARE!
let me repeat it:
MAKE A BACKUP OF THE ORIGINAL FIRMWARE!

Without a copy of this firmware it is impossible to add your dpf! Or recover it if something goes wrong!

There are two possibilities to backup the firmware with dpf-ax:

fulldump.py: backup of firmware only.
cd ./fw
sudo ./fulldump.py /dev/sgX
Where "X" is the device your dpf is connected to (normally "/dev/sg1" or "/dev/sg2").
The dump will be written to "full.bin".

identify.py: backup of firmware and check if your dpf is already supported.
cd ./fw
sudo ./identify.py /dev/sgX
Where "X" is the device your dpf is connected to (normally "/dev/sg1" or "/dev/sg2").
The dump will be written to "identify.out/full.bin".

If identify.py tells you that your dpf is not supported, upload the firmware somewhere and post a link or attach it your request.

Some additional infos would be nice:
- Manufacturer
- Link to shopping site.
