PandaBoard ES HDMI no output

Postby halherta » Tue Oct 16, 2012 2:04 pm

Hello all,
I recently bought a Pandaboard ES board. I'm new to the OMAP processors and to ARCH Linux. I was able to successfully follow the installation instructions on the site (Pandaboard as opposed to Panadaboard ES) and got ARCH running from an SD Card. I was able to get an eth0 detected and proceeded to use pacman to install a variety of packages.

I have been unable to get HDMI/DVI-D working i.e. I get no output on either connector by default. What do i have to do to enable these peripherals on startup? should i modify the boot.scr/bootcmd file(s) from the instructions provided on the installation page to enable video on boot? Or is there another way? If it's just a matter of adding a few settings to the boot.scr file, can someone provide with a copy of a bootcmd file with settings that are guaranteed to work?

I've tried a few iterations ..(i added "omapfb.mode=dvi:1280x1024MR-24@60" and "omapdss.def_disp=dvi" boot args to bootcmd ) but none seemed to do the trick.


Thank you
halherta

I have exactly the same problem: Arch seems to boot well, but no output in the HDMI or DVI port.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('kaelisRa', 'I') have exactly the same problem: Arch seems to boot well, but no output in the HDMI or DVI port.

I made another thread for BeagleboneBlack. Same issue.
