That is also my problem.  TI seems to just want to duck the whole issue 
and get you over to the Tiva parts without any acknowledgement the 
Stellaris parts ever existed.  I believe the parts that have a part 
number mapping are the same part.  The one on the Stellaris Launchpad 
maps to a Tiva part and the web page for that has all docs referring to 
Tiva... except for the errata which is still uses the old Stellaris part 
number.  So I figure that one *has* to be the same part, lol.

When I search I didn't find so much, but then you didn't find the user 
manual, so I'm not sure what it was that you *did* find.  I found a 
number of docs talking about the conversion to the new parts, but none 
really answered my questions.

While digging for the Launchpad in my various boxes, I found several 
eval boards with LCDs.  One is an old Cypress PSOC board with their 
proprietary 8 bit MCU.  Another is a Renesas RX62N board with all sorts 
of bells and whistles.  I even found an old Stellaris Luminary eval 
board with a teeny tiny 2 line OLED display that I used to make a Sudoku 
puzzle.  Then finally I found a not quite so old Kinetis Kwik Stik which 
has an ARM CM4 processor at 100 MHz.  I may need to do something with 
this one.
