LCD and VGA simultaneously ?

Daniel
Hi,

I purchased a Mini2440 256MB, the 7" LCD and a LCD2VGA board. Is it
possible to drive both the LCD and the VGA module?

The LCD is mounted on a PCB, which has 2 preparations for 40-pin connectors
called "LCD1" and "LCD3". My idea was to just to connect the VGA board to
one of LCD1 or LCD3, instead connecting it directly to the mini2440.

The problem is, that the kernel configured for the LCD doesn't work for the
VGA module. Is there a way to switch between VGA or LCD mode, while Linux
is running, or to get LCD and VGA to work simultaneously ( same resolution
) ?

in principle yes, when you use let say 800x600 with lcd kernel the lcd2vga
should work too. All you maybe have to do is to enable backlight manually.
The only open question might be load, not sure if the lcd controller is
strong enough to drive both.
