Ramps-fd with reprap discount graphic lcd

I have been working on setting up my ramps-fd with repetier firmware. I have everything working except for the screen. My setup is a arduino due with ramps-fd, i am using the Geeetech lcd panel adapter for ramps-fd and a reprap discount full graphic lcd. I have set the feature controller to 11 in the firmware and get nothing on the screen, the back light doesn't even come on. I know the screen works, I had it turn on while i was trying to compile marlin on my setup.
If anyone can help me i would really appreciate it.

    There is no pin mapping for ramps-fd in controller 11. Check ui.h and add there a copy for your motherboard with your pin numbers and it will work. If it works, file me a copy so I can add it permanently. Have no test platform here.

    I have also tried a g3d screen which is in ui.h and modified one of the motherboards that was close to mine but with no results, has anyone ever actually got a screen running on the ramps fd board?

    No, there is no predefined screen for ramsp-fd. For each display you need to tweak the pins or use manual definition.

    Turns out the company who made my screen installed the ribon conectors upside down, the firmware work without any modifications needed.
    Thanks for the help.
