Guest dagrim1 Posted May 16, 2011 Report Posted May 16, 2011 Haha, well... unfortunately I didn't get it working... I just didn't get any display (and appearantly the original screen is also glued very solidly or something making it a real b*tch to get out). Also, planning on buying a new tablet anyway so not really that motivated to try and get it working :unsure:
Guest ejtagle Posted May 16, 2011 Report Posted May 16, 2011 Hey... I am working to get the .36 linux kernel working on Vega... And, trust me, the kernel has the LCD resolution and parameters in an internal table hardcoded into it. So, the ONLY way to make a different LCD screen (either different resolution and/or different model) work on vega, is to modify that table, reciompile the kernel and flash it into the vega. There is no other way to do this. Kernel has no lcd autodetection of any kind, and it is just plainly impossible to implement, so... But, if the replacement LCD connector is also 40pin, there is a great possibility to make it work by just changing that linux kernel table to the right one. Perhaps, once i get the .36 kernel working, we could try to make that LG LCD screen work.. :unsure:

As mentioned I am planning on buying another tablet anyway, so this wouldn't be only for me. But if I still have the vega by the time you have managed to get the kernel workign I wouldn't mind giving it another try!
