Nitrogen6X with 1024x600 Screen

[prophaner]

I'm trying to install ArchLinuxARM in the Nitrogen6X from http://boundarydevices.com/ with Eric's help (one of their developers), but I've got to a stage which I can't figure it out. At the beggining the issue was that the OS didn't want to boot up. Eric fixed the 6q_bootscript file as attached. And now the OS boots up with some errors (see below). When booting up I can see 4 Penguins and then it goes black again. Another cool fact is that Eric told me to put 3 commands and it showed the output "Hello, World" in the screen:

# echo 0 > /sys/class/graphics/fb0/blank
# dd < /dev/urandom > /dev/fb0
# echo "Hello, World" > /dev/tty0.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Well the good news is: you have Arch Linux ARM installed. You're just having issues with the framebuffer driver & display configuration. We'll be updating that kernel to the most recent 3.0.35_GA soon.

[prophaner]

That's good news, is there any quick fix I can do today?

[WarheadsSE]

I can't see your 6q_bootscript, but my immediate guess is that something is wonk in your boot-time video configuration.

this is basically the 6q_bootscript, if you want/need the file i can email it to you. I actually uploaded it in the post.

I don't have any hardware to attach to the LVDS port, so I can't physically troubleshoot.

.$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('WarheadsSE', 'W')ell the good news is: you have Arch Linux ARM installed. You're just having issues with the framebuffer driver & display configuration. We'll be updating that kernel to the most recent 3.0.35_GA soon.

[WarheadsSE]

We'll get it packaged up as soon as we get impetus to update one of our boards. You will know it is there by checking for updates.
