Title: A10s problem
Post by: pinturikio on September 12, 2013, 05:56:40 PM
I have recently purchased A10S-OLinuXino-MICRO-4GB.I connected it to my LCD monitor (http://www.samsung.com/my/consumer/pc-peripherals-printer/monitor/lcd-monitor/LS20EFHKFV/XM) using HDMI to DVI adapter.After plugging the power supply (5v 1A) the red power LED comes on but nothing appears on the monitor - only 2-3 times it flashed for less than a second.Nothign happens even after pressing the POWER button.Can you tell me how to check if i am doing everything right since now i have no idea if the A10s is currently working?
Thank you in advance

I had the same problem on my Asus 27 inch monitor.  Interesting thing is I have no problem with another Asus monitor and LG TV, but have problem with Samsung monitor.  It seemed this problem depending on the monitor that you use.  EDID related problem?  Maybe some people can shine some light on this.

Try another monitor, let us know your results.

I will try it on other monitor and later will conenct it to HDMI TV without the DVI adapter. I will be sure to share the results.
