Hello,
I could not change the screen from standard HDMI 720p to 7"TS LCD_connector.
So now my question:
How can I change this settings?
And can I change it under Debian, or do I have to do it external?
Hope you can help,
Herkules
Can't anyone help? :(
Hi
Open a Terminal(console) in Debian. Type ./change_display.sh there you can change to TS output and also the resolution.
Hope that helps.

I tried this already and there comes the output:
bash: ./change_display.sh: No such file or directory
I typed it exactley as you told me.... What is wrong here?
Hope you can help,

On A20 debian image release5, the script is "change_display_a20.sh".
Thanks that helped :)
To all a happy new year,

Hello,
when i start "change_display_a20.sh" after the reboot my LCD don't turn on and also my HDMI.
after that step i can't connect on the a20-olinuxino with the SSH.
How did you do please?
I'm sorry, I did it exactly like you, but I did not get that issue.
Maybe try not to remove the battery after shutdown, so the EEPROM keeps alive.
Sorry that I can'T help,
Herkules
you can try to change script. bin
look here http://linux-sunxi.org/Fex_Guide#.5Bctp_para.5D (http://linux-sunxi.org/Fex_Guide#.5Bctp_para.5D)
https://github.com/linux-sunxi/sunxi-boards/blob/master/sys_config/a20/a20-olinuxino_micro.fex (https://github.com/linux-sunxi/sunxi-boards/blob/master/sys_config/a20/a20-olinuxino_micro.fex)
how to change the bin file http://www.imajeenyus.com/computer/20130301_android_tablet/android/fex2bin_etc.html (http://www.imajeenyus.com/computer/20130301_android_tablet/android/fex2bin_etc.html)
thank you
thank you but it still doesn't works.
i have change the script.bin on /mnt/mmc/script.bin
and i have disable HDMI and modify scrren0_output_type = 1 in disp_init.
I don't know why after this step my card don't work.
the Debian program is on the NAND or SDCARD for you?
I have find a solution,
it's XFCE the problem for me, i have remove XFCE and now i can change display between lcd and hdmi simply with the script change_display_a20.h
thank you all
now i search another desktop environment

sorry guys for resuming this discussion, but it's somewhat related, so I thought not to start another thread.
I just installed the unofficial Archlinux for ARM into my olinuxino, and I would like to use the change_display_a20.sh but obviously is not shipped with this distribution.
Can anyone provide the file online or point me to a location where I can download it?
thanks in advance!
Same problem as reported initial, ./change_display_a20.sh doesn t work neither the other one given on the wiki. Is there a new name for this script in latest release ? :(
"unofficial Archlinux" sounds to be the cause.
John
What can we do then ?
What is the content of these scripts ?
Hi
The script is called "change_display_a20_OlinuXino.sh" in the latest Debian image.
What it does is take a predefined .fex file and modifies it with a lot of ifs and seds and when finished creates a .bin file to be read at boot time.
There are some examples available at
https://github.com/linux-sunxi/sunxi-boards/tree/master/sys_config/a20
and you need sunxi-tools to convert .fex to .bin
https://github.com/linux-sunxi/sunxi-tools
I can also send the script if somebody needs it (don´t think it´s secret as it is in official olimex image?)
Ok but why the command doesn t work ?
I paid attention to be in the root directory and I got the error mentioned above.
And I m using the latest Debian image from the wiki...

Strange. Did the same and it works for me. Just summerize your steps?
1) You have the latest Debian image from the wiki
2) You boot it, open a console, run "change_display_a20_OlinuXino.sh" in /root as user root or with sudo
3) A command line gui opens, where you can select "LCD" and "7".
4) You save and exit with reboot or without
5) you reboot the board
6) the LCD is connected via the HD cable to the right port on the board (says LCD_CON, on top of the writing "A20-OLINUXINO-MICRO")
What error do you get? Display not turning on?
1) Yes downloaded and installed the day before yesterday
2) Here is the problem
I boot it - ok.
Then I go to root (cd .. x2)
Then I tried "./change_display_a20_OlinuXino.sh" "sudo ./change_display_a20_OlinuXino.sh" "sudo sh ./change_display_a20_OlinuXino.sh" and more...
And it doesn't work. I have something like that bash: ./change_display_a20_OlinuXino.sh: No such file or directory.
I'm convinced I'm doing something wrong :-[, but what ?

are you in
/
or
/root
directory (you should be in /root)? Can you verifiy the file is there (execute "ls")? Can you verify the file is executeable (ls -l)?
Case matters. The wiki shows ...A20... not ...a20..., for example.
John
The screen I can use is busy at the moment, but I'll try as soon as possible.
Nope not in root but in /. Maybe here is my mistake. I didn't find the sh script for directories I looked.
Will check that root directory.
It seems to be so obvious...
@John : I paid attention to case.
Will tell you the result, thanks a lot jlucius.
Your report shows the wrong case.
John
That was it Jlucius :).
Thanks again.
