holm Posted May 28 Share Posted May 28 until I've installed the 24.05 image the cubieboard2 came up with an HDMI output on video, I have an DVI to VGA Adapter connected and could use an USB Keyboard+Mouse and the VGA Monitor. Since I've installed the Armbian_community_24.5.0-trunk.667_Cubieboard2_jammy_current_6.6.31_xfce_desktop.img.xz on the SD card, the system comes up with an ASCII Console on the VGA Monitor, later the screen gets cleared with only an cursor in the left top and then gets switched off. I've managed before to switch the output of the X-Server from None-1 to HDMI-1-1 using xrandr, but this is only possible with an proper and authenticated Display and I have to use an autologin Desktop to manage this in the Session startup files using xrandr. I know that I can puzzle together an xorg.conf file ..but since the modesetting exists this should be history, shouldn't it? How can I switch the X-server to an existing output before the login? How about the LCD Interface for LVDS Displays that exist in the Allwinner chips and that could be used some time before? Is there a possibility to use them with some framebuffer driver? I know that the cubieboards2 are old hardware..but that shouldn't be much different at Olinuxino Lime or others? That are 32bit, 2 core, amost 1Ghz computers, it should be possible to do something useful with them. Regards, Holm 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
