The Sda5708 display is a really beautiful display found in old dBox1 cable/satellite receivers. Since the dbox1 case and display is really great for Raspberry Pi-projects, I offer this pull request. See the display in action here
Parts of this code are ported from https://github.com/pimium/sda5708 (thanks to @pimium) which in turn used the information from http://www.sbprojects.com/knowledge/footprints/sda5708.php.
The font is taken from http://sunge.awardspace.com/glcd-sd/node4.html with additional german characters added.
