How do you interface an LCD to the iMX233?

Hi, I have an Olimex iMX233 Maxi and I am trying to connect a color LCD to it.  This is the LCD that I am using, and it uses this LCD controller internally.  I would like to use the 80-system 8-bit interface to talk to the LCD, but I have no idea where to begin to start configuring the iMX233 for this.  I am currently running Arch Linux 2.6.35, but I am open to running other distributions if they make it easier. 

I already have the LCD wired up to the board, I'm just not sure how to configure Linux to drive the LCD.  Any ideas?

Maybe check here : iMX233-OLinuXino with LCD 4.3″ and touchscreen « olimex

Basically you want to configure PINMUX properly (or PINCTRL). Then you want to pass correct configuration data to the LCD controller (look at the driver in drivers/video/mxs_* )
