   if i get a 10 meter long hdmi cable i could test it, or i need to move my asus   
   into the living room, my pn50 can use 2 monitors at same time one displayport   
   and one hdmi port, native connectors :=)   
      
   and still have usb c ports to be used as monitors ports :=)   
      
   such screens can be transportable, hehe

   it did for me, but i lost the wiki page for this   
      
   so you need to google what is left with above keywords

   so you miss firmware ?, or just a asus pn50 ? :)   
      
    BP>> want all in fb0 ?   
    MK> Sure why not?  However xorg still works and "mplayer -vo vdpau -fs

   also links -g https://localhost/mypicture.jpg :)

   i have a 49" android tv, cheap :=)   
      
   but it is expansive if it just a monitor, hmm   
       
    MK>  As for the 7" monitors I

   rasberry pi 7" touch screen ?, i have one of them, still planning on create   
   something with it

   yes it nice, olso on hollydays :=)
