Wondering if there's anything similar to retroarch or mednafen that'll work for armbian on a pcduino3? I can't get the former to compile/install and the latter gives me guff about not being able to find a GLX visual when it tries to load video. It's worth noting that I'm pretty green when it comes to Linux, especially when it comes to "exotic"/SoC builds. I have nothing against learning, but I've found the signal-to-noise ratio for this product in particular is very poor and a lot of the info is woefully obsolete.

Argh ffs this is infuriating. I plugged in a hdmi-to-vga adapter and it immediately defaulted back to 1280*720. I updated script.bin with VGA mode and I'm back to booting to a black screen. What the hell is going on? Why can't I get it to correctly output if I manually give it settings i know it can use?

I just won. All I needed to do was add an edid flag to boot.scr Works perfectly now.

Ok well, I've tried a few things and it always leads to the same thing onscreen: input signal out of range. I have to plugpull and reboot it every time. Trying to change HDMI modes with a10disp leads to a message saying pretty much every resolution is reported by the driver as incompatible. Oddly enough, the very first screen that appears on power-up correctly auto-sets to 1024*768. After it goes into Armbian though, it changes to 1920*1080. So obviously Armbian isn't "reading" the screen right. How would I use fbset to add the unsupported resolution in the way you suggested?

So ARMbian is my preferred OS for the pcduino3 because it outperforms all of the other options. However, I'm having trouble altering the screen resolution. I'm trying to get it set to 1024x768@60p and it's not playing ball. I've edited script.bin and boot.cmd to change the display mode to output mode/type 4 (desired res and VGA mode respectively) but it just goes to a blank screen and refuses to boot when I reboot it. What exactly do I need to do to get this resolution working? If 1024x768@60 isn't an option, I can work with 1280x1024@60 as well, but I'm still clueless as to the necessary steps to take to change it. -edit- Sorry I should add I'm using the jessie desktop legacy build.
