On the 4:3 resolution, it is already on the to-do list. Due to 4:3 is not prefer format on HDMI output, there may be other issue to consider such as whether the HDMI-VGA adapter able to sync properly.

I know that there is no pan to support LVDS. All I am saying is that most of the people out there are not aware of the fact, that android mostly do not support 16:10/4:3 resolution over HDMI. Almost in every forum related to some Fruit-Pi/single-Board-Computer board are people asking: "I have this old LCD screen, an cheap adapter, everything works fine under Windows, how can I set the resolution to whatever under Android"

I will be amazed and happy to see support for VGA/DVI 4:3 or 16:10 screens. But if this is not possible please state that clear, so people are not wasting money on unsupported electronics.
