Hello @Da Xue 720x480 would be the resolution on the screen and much like you say the new kernel has timings already which seem to work. I am not dedicated to technology, or arbmbian, and I would have like to respond earlier. side note: my 'le potato' has become a broadcasting server on a static ip....not shared but can be found...and can handle quad hd streaming on like how ever you want to qualify "low data" while running at some 4% of memory for 1 1280 x 720 stream i will get it working likely tomorrow somehow.....it is the weekend.

So far, I have not understood what A10 or A20 is, I am a beginner in this land....it does say there is an option for "other boards" also which is a less descriptive line than the one for A10 A20 type boards.....i use LibreComputer "le potato". and i am hoping "other boards" works....

following up on my own question with my own direction......some research revealed... https://docs.armbian.com/User-Guide_Fine-Tuning/ this way to alter boot.cmd and boot.scr and armbian.txt in /boot Edit and change boot parameters in /boot/boot.cmd (not recommended) or variables in /boot/armbianEnv.txt: - console=both + console=serial Recompile boot.cmd to boot.scr if it was changed: mkimage -C none -A arm -T script -d /boot/boot.cmd /boot/boot.scr Reboot. and this: for armbian screen settings on H3 devices: # Example to set resolution to 1920 x 1080, full colour-range and DVI h3disp -m 1080p60 -d -c 1 screen resolution on other boards: nano /boot/boot.cmd # example: # change example from # disp.screen0_output_mode=1920x1080p60 # to # disp.screen0_output_mode=1280x720p60 mkimage -C none -A arm -T script -d /boot/boot.cmd /boot/boot.scr screen resolution interactive - only Allwinner boards with A10 and A20 with legacy kernel: # Example to set console framebuffer resolution to 1280 x 720 a10disp changehdmimodeforce 4 Other modes: 0 480i 1 576i 2 480p 3 576p 4 720p 50Hz 5 720p 60Hz 6 1080i 50 Hz 7 1080i 60 Hz 8 1080p 24 Hz 9 1080p 50 Hz 10 1080p 60 Hz this is going to be my direction so i hope to install a new screen soon....on a Le Potato

Thanks for some direction, I am somewhat of a noob and Armbian is interesting if I can get to a desktop I will be very happy, I intend to make this a video camera mostly with a usb camera like a go pro and an lcd touchscreen with a desktop is necessary. As for the solution, I am applying myself in research for more understanding. Anything could help.

I have to believe that this is due to the timings being zeros. I have updated /etc/fb.modes to read but i have still had no luck in seeing the timings update. I also checked to make sure there was a device at /dev/fb0.

Hello, I have a 7 in lcd touchscreen that I would like to use with my 'le potato' board. I have begun using Armbian Le Potato Debian Stretch. I would like to get this working and would explore many options but when it breaks down i have: utilized putty to ssh into my 'le potato' with ethernet on my main router and typed in fbset to reveal... putty ssh screenshot I was curious about other possible options in Armbian like utilizing a config file or converting a .bin file to fex and changing the values. However, I have had no luck in utilizing an hdmi touchscreen besides maintaining usb power and flickering. Would anyone have a method of touchscreen display implementation via hdmi in Armbian?
