in 10% of system startups I noticed an echo in the image
the echo can already be seen in the kernel splash screen stage
and all the time until restart
My platform iris 2.0 , imx8x + lvds display
Have you tried another cable or/and monitor?
I tested different LCD panel on LVDS and test another monitor !
Images in my first post are from LCD on LVDS
IRIS 2.0 has VGA output on DVI , now in attachmend I send image from DVI-VGA out image when I have “echo” on LVDS
the picture on VGA is more broken !

Hi @MariusM ,
Could you please share more information about you setup?
- Which Colibri iMX8 version are you using?
- From your dmesg we see that you are using Linux version 5.4.161-5.6.0-devel+git.e395d949e46b
- Can you please check the overlays that you have active (
/boot/overlays.txt)?- Please try to remove any overlays not related to the display output that you are using
- A good reference: Device Tree Overlays (Linux) | Toradex Developer Center
- Which display are you using (model and version)?
Best regards,
Looks like LCD parametres like pixel clock, sync signal polarity etc doesn’t exactly match your display spec.

Hi @MariusM !
Comparing the datasheet and the overlay that you are using (display-edt7_overlay.dtbo), seems like they are not compatible.
Let’s take a look at the timing diagram of your display
From this, seems like all the blanking time (front porch + back porch + sync) must be either before or after the active time for both vertical and horizontal time.
And the overlay for Toradex’s EDT7 display has blanking time for both before and after active time.

Could you please try both settings:
- back porches to zero,
- front porches and sync to zero
Best regards,
Thanks for the suggestions.
I am watching the screen!
Echo does not appear!
Hi @MariusM !
Great that it worked for you!
Could you please share the working device tree, so it can serve as a guide for others?
Best regards,
I’m still investigating the problem!
