I have a ConnectCore6UL SBC, and the 10" WVGA LCD Application Kit. By default, the display does not show any activity.
Where would I change the settings (kernel and/or U-Boot) to bring up the graphical display?
what image are you booting? does it have graphics? LCD should work using stock images
Download the firmware images from this location: ftp://ftp1.digi.com/support/digiembeddedyocto/2.0/r4/images/82004060_1P.zip
or images from here:
ftp://ftp1.digi.com/support/digiembeddedyocto/2.0/r4/images/82004059_1P/ccimx6ulsbc/x11/
rest your u-boot environment and note your video variable.
Touch Screen does not work. It will not support the touch interface due to and i2c address conflict between the audio chip and the touch controller. For that reason digi is working on a new video adapter board that changes the address of the touch interface.
None of the image files bring up the display, with either the RGB parallel or LVDS cable connected.
did you try to reset your u-boot environment?
env default –a
save
reset
if that doesn’t help, please cope and paste your “video” variable
printenv video
I updated uboot, linux, and rootfs from the microSD card.
There is no “video” environment variable in either U-Boot or Linux.

I see GUI when the board boots from images programmed with this:
ftp://ftp1.digi.com/support/digiembeddedyocto/2.0/r4/images/82004060_1P.zip
if you do not you might need to RMA your board
It boots into Linux but I get no back-light and no GUI.
are you able to test the LCD kid with another board? Are you connecting it to LVDS connector on cc6ul SBC? I suspect you have an issue either with the kit or the board. it should work with no tricks and it does work here for me. contact support and ask for RMA
I have a CC6 (not UL) SBC, which boots into the GUI on HDMI. The LCD does not work there either. I will request a replacement LCD.
