Roger, "Very cool"... took me a while too to light up my display on my PCM-5864 board, but like you said, a little tech support and some 2mm IDE cable slicing works well! If you are looking for a smaller display, here are two to choose from, both in the $100 US price range: http://www.earthlcd.com/sbc.htm The display is $99, and the "trinket kit" of touch interface, cabling, etc, is another $100, depending if you need that or not. There are two displays, the first being a Panasonic, the second being a Hitachi which is the same price, but on another page (sorry I didn't have the link to it handy). Both have a 4-wire resistive touch film over the LCD surface. Smaller displays can be had in surplus places as well as online-auction places. Ya have to hunt. Took me about 3 months to find a working (and affordable) Toshiba LTM04c380K 4" true VGA display. Of course I can't find the necessary FFC/FPC cable for it anywhere, but thats another story. I found an inverter for it and the backlight lights up no problem. So, I'm getting there. I'm using an advantech SOM-5822 board thats about the size of a 2.5" IDE drive for it. This stuff is fun, yet frustrating! --- Roger Gonzalez <> wrote: > Thanks to a helpful Advantech support person, I now > have the Sharp > LQ104V7DS01 working with the PCM-5822, and it looks > byootiful!
