Fw: Dodgy Linitx screen...

[Gareth Cook <g@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Just plugged it into my newer T42p (purchased 3 years apart) - does
something similar - as soon as you plug it in, the display goes blank and
the whole system freezes - still powered up tho.

Only a hard reset sorts things out without the touch screen plugged in

[ukha_d] Dodgy Linitx screen...
.
Category:



Ordered a 8" Wide Touch screen from Linitx (I'll have to sort the
speakers

out after).

Arrived damaged, with the screen casing apart and bits of plastic rattling

inside. OK, not a major issue.

The screen tho is on the piss - ie tilted anit-clockwise 3 or 4 degrees.
Not so good.

Now the really weird part. If I plug the VGA cable (even if it's the TFT
is NOT powered) , it immediately kills the power to the laptop and a
battery removal and power cord removal are necessary before it will start
again.

Plug the VGA back in - woof ! dead.

Anyone seen that issue before ?
