There are also patches on the U-Boot mailing list which get HDMI output working from U-Boot. I've tested this and it works as expected, but I've not included it in the current build becauseIn any case, if anyone is interested, you can see the changes required for HDMI and USB keyboard support in this branch.
- Using HDMI output from U-Boot seems to break HDMI output from mainline Linux until a Linux app runs that changes the video mode, which resets HDMI and gets it working again.
- to be properly useful to interact with U-Boot, it'd require a USB keyboard, but starting U-Boot's USB support (required before any keyboard is recognised) takes several seconds, and it doesn't seem worthwhile to slow down every boot with the "usb start" command when normally it's not required.
I compiled Manjaro's (mainline-ish) u-boot for the PBP and added the additional config lines from your rk3399-hdmi branch, naively hoping I could get the USB keyboard and eDP display to work on boot. It compiled but unfortunately neither the keyboard/LCD display work in uboot or grub; GRUB still says "error: no suitable video mode found" when trying to display on tty1.
Do you have any suggestions on how I can go about getting this to work? Thanks!
