Hi everyone,

i really like the new altera board!

how would i connect a vga output to the board?
is there an extension board somewhere on the internet, that could e used?
an article i found said, it would just need some gpio with resistors and a vga socket.

regards
chris

I found some low cost dvi board.

https://www.gumstix.com/store/product_info.php?products_id=215

For me it looks like i can connect the 40 pins to the developement board.
Am i right?

That looks like an interesting board to pair up with ORDB2a.
I can't see what interface that is used to communicate with the gumstix board, but as long as it's electrically compatible with the expansion ports on the ORDB2a, it should probably work. Just have to make a connector and figure out how to talk with it
