How to use the HDMI/DVI output of the APF27DevFull and APF51Dev development boards.

Driver installation

APF51Dev

  • Nothing has to be done

APF27DevFull

  • Starting from armadeus-3.2 release or in recent GIT checkout, the needed driver is now installed by default. Informations are kept here as reference.

Usage

APF27DevFull

  • Load the module:
# modprobe ad9889

APF51Dev

  • Start the utility:
tfp410ctrl

Then press 'Q' to exit

Quick DVI test

Connect a HDMI<->DVI cable between the APFxxDev board and a PC monitor with a DVI input or use a HDMI<->HDMI cable if your display has this kind of refinement. The Linux console must appear on the monitor.
