Hello,

To integrate your Tianma P0840XGF1MA00 LVDS display with the Verdin iMX8MP, you’ll need to modify a device tree overlay to match your display’s specifications. Here’s a concise guide to help you:

1. Select a Base Overlay: Since you’ve tried display-lt170410_sn65dsi84_overlay.dtsi and display-rvt70hslnwca0_overlay.dtsi, consider which one aligns more closely with your display’s interface and resolution. If neither is suitable, you might need to create a new overlay using these as references.

2. Modify the Overlay: Open the chosen overlay file and adjust the display timings and resolution according to your display’s datasheet. Pay attention to horizontal and vertical timings, including back porch, front porch, sync length, and active area.

3. Verify Timing Parameters: Ensure the horizontal period equals hbackporch + hactive + hfront_porch + hsync-len and the vertical period equals vback_porch + vactive + vfront_porch + vsync-len. Correct settings are crucial for display functionality.

4. Deploy and Test: Compile the modified overlay and deploy it to your device. Make sure the overlay is enabled in your boot configuration. After deployment, reboot your device to check if the display is recognized.

5. Troubleshoot if Necessary: If the display does not work, recheck the timing parameters and ensure the overlay is correctly applied. You may need to experiment with different base overlays or consult the display’s documentation for specific requirements.

By carefully adjusting the device tree overlay to match your display’s specifications, you should be able to get your LVDS display working with the Verdin iMX8MP.

Imx8qm HDMI blanking time adjustments

Hello, I am currently struggeling with changing the default HDMI timing for full HD output. We need to change the Blanking times. Adding an EDID-File into /lib/firmware/edid and trying to force it via setenv "videoconfig=drm_kms_helper.edid_firmware=edid/1920x1080.bin" saveenv in uboot did not change the blanking times at all. Is there another approach we could try? In the device tree files it seems, that detailed timing setup is only possible for LVDS, or am I missing something there? Any…

How to activate the LVDS touch panel for Verdin iMX8M Mini on Yocto

I am working on: Dahlia Carrier Board Verdin iMX8M Mini Branch kirkstone-6.x.y Installing a reference image and then SSH into the target and manually changing fdt_overlays in overlays.txt works perfectly. However, I am trying to directly create an image with the 10 inch touch panel activated but I am probably missing something obvious. I tried a few things and my last attempt was by following this: Custom meta layers, recipes and images in Yocto Project (hello-world examples) | Toradex Deve…
