Hello,

I connected the display to the router using of USB video adaptor displaylink.

If some one is interested here is the link http://h-wrt.com/en/doc/video

yapoo, thank you for the link!
It is very interesting for me.

Are you an expert of kinect? Could I ask you some questions via skype or icq?

Hi, neiro.

I'm sorry to say that I'm not an expert of it.
I'm interested in working kinect with openwrt.
Can you port openni to openwrt buildroot?

yapoo,
are the devices primesensor already been salling in your country ? We havn't them on sale unfortunately.
What does primesensor cost in your country?

Hi.

Unfortunately primesenser is not sold here in Japan, too.
How about kinect? If it is sold in your country, you can get one in not expensive price maybe.
I heard they are almost the same hardware.

Did it work for you, attaching the console to the displaylink device?

Let’s check the presence of the device fb in the directory /dev:

root@OpenWrt:/# ls /dev/fb*
/dev/fb0
Let’s check if the virtual console of the frame buffer has been created:

root@OpenWrt:/# ls /sys/class/vtconsole/vtcon*
/sys/class/vtconsole/vtcon0:
bind name subsystem uevent
/sys/class/vtconsole/vtcon1:
bind name subsystem uevent
The console has been created. Let’s check that it belongs to the frame buffer:

root@OpenWrt:/# cat /sys/class/vtconsole/vtcon1/name
(M) frame buffer device
Let’s check that it is bound:

root@OpenWrt:/# cat /sys/class/vtconsole/vtcon1/bind
1

I'm getting all of this, but the console won't attach to the fb0 device, all I get is a green screen...

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance!

The discussion might have continued from here.
