Lilliput monitors resolution

Thanks for the link. I already ordered the Sun Founder 10.1 from Ali Express, and it has already shipped. Should have it by christmas.

Gmoccapy does not need a resolution of 1024x768, just look at the doku for minimum resolution!

Hi Norbert,

I like the way you laid out gmoccapy, and don't want to change it. Will be interesting if I can get that chinese 10,1 inch touch screen to work with it. I already received a Gigabyte Brix (extremely compact PC) but it is DOA, so the seller is sending me another MoBo.

I got the message from Aliexpress that my monitor is in Austria, and has been for a week, but it still hasnt been delivered.

Meanwhile, my gigabyte brix arrived. It was DOA, but the seller sent a second one and it works.

Sounds a bit like the Australian postal service.

Can't understand post sometimes, 4-8 days for a parcel from the UK, +2 weeks for a small package from a couple of suburbs away.

Keep us up to date with how things go.

Try sending an international parcel with Australia Post! Often to be fair though (and this is probably the case in Austria as well) that the fault lies with the receiving post office or its stuck in Customs at the receiving end. I have one customer in Cape Verde who is a bit frantic as the tracking page showed a blank for about 10 days and all of a sudden is now tracking again!

After nearly a month, I got contacted by the post that they need a copy of the order invoice and Visa bill for customs. I assume I'll be paying the 20% VAT and a €10 post handling charge. Seeing as I paid €106 from Ali Express, this will give final price of about €137,50.

I should have done more research. Turns out these monitors are available from Amazon for €126 with two day delivery. Duh!

Got a 17" 3M MicroTouch USB Monitor for AUD $21.00

Little messing around to configure used the xserver-xorg-input-evdev (had more luck with evdev than libinput with Stretch), had to swap x-y and invert both axes and messed around with the Coordinate Matrix Transformation (trial & error) but works.

My Sunfounder monitor arrived from customs today. Boy was that a bad deal. Next time Amazon.

The $64000 question, is it good to use ?

Yeah I know what you mean....The latest $35 Rpi Killer, the Atmic Pi (x86 based) cost roughly $35 USD for the actual board and $50 USD postage to Oz.
