LVDS
VAR-SOM-MX8X supports one dual-channel LVDS interface.
Variscite VAR-SOM-MX8X evaluation kit comes with two LVDS connectors, one connector per LVDS channel.
By default Variscite panel is attached to LVDS#A connector.
Adding custom LVDS panel
VAR-SOM-MX8X evaluation kit comes with 800x480 LVDS panel.
VAR-SOM-MX8X DTS file was created with this panel in mind.
To support different LVDS panel, several modifications may be required.
The following code configures LVDS panel in arch/arm64/boot/dts/freescale/fsl-imx8qxp-var-som-common.dtsi under kernel source tree
&ldb1_phy {
status = "ok";
};
&ldb1 {
status = "ok";
lvds-channel@0 {
fsl,data-mapping = "jeida";
fsl,data-width = <24>;
status = "ok";
display-timings {
lvds {
clock-frequency = <29232000>;
hactive = <800>;
vactive = <480>;
hback-porch = <40>;
hfront-porch = <40>;
vback-porch = <29>;
vfront-porch = <13>;
hsync-len = <48>;
vsync-len = <3>;
hsync-active = <0>;
vsync-active = <0>;
de-active = <1>;
pixelclk-active = <0>;
};
};
};
};
You may need to modify "fsl,data-mapping", "fsl,data-width" and "display-timings" properties to match your panel specification.
For more information see Documentation/devicetree/bindings/display/imx/ldb.txt in the kernel source tree.
Setting Weston Desktop Resolution
The default Weston uses maximum resolution supported by display.
To modify Weston resolution, edit /etc/xdg/weston/weston.ini and set size parameter in shell section.
For example, to set 1080P resolution
[shell] size=3840x2160
For new settings to take effect restart weston by running
# systemctl restart weston
