Hello, I have tried to connect to Mini 6410 board an external monitor(through LCD connector and LCD to VGA converter) to have dual display(or extend monitor). But it didn't work: On Monitor, i have a white screen and it doesn't show anything. Is this board support dual display? Is it possible to connect another monitor to this board and make dual display? If yes, can you explain how? Thanks in advance people.
Is the LCD to VGA converter the FriendlyArm product? I would be looking at how the bootloader is setup. Maybe, it needs to be changed for the different displays. Try searching <white screen> on the forum. To see how the bootloader is set up, while using minicom and the your RS232 cable you can stop the bootloader and then do a <printenv>. I know that changing to different LCDs seems to require timing changes in the kernel and a recompile. Good luck
Hi davef and thank you very much for your answer. I have been reading the user manual of the board and it is written that the big monitors are not supported by LCD driver(max. 8 inch is supported) and the max. 1024X768 resolution is supported. So i think i need to use a small, lcd screen which is NOT what i want since i want much more bigger monitors. However, i think, i will try tv-out for dual display. Once i did, i will share the results. Thank you again.
CORRECTION: Hello again, You can make dual display only with one type of devices. I mean in options.h, if you open only touchscreen driver, then only touchscreens will work connecting the lcd interfaces, not other devices(like lcd2vga interface). Shorty, I tried to connect one touchscreen to one lcd interface and one monitor to another, this doesn't work. You can only connect them just one type of devices depending on which device you chose by uncommenting it in options.h file before making image. I will try AV-OUT and i will share the results again.
