Hi Nicolas, I have noted the patch that includes the statement "-screen 240x320" in Xserver configuration file.
I did try to modify that to "-screen 800x480" for my LCD display of 800x480 but it did not seem to work either. Another issue observed is that the "gpe-dm" executes (as seen on console output), but the others application "gpe-confd" etc which are expected to be executed (as per 9261EK board) did NOT execute at all. Again, this test was done on a custom board (similar to 9261EK board) but with a 800x480 display. Also, the default jffs2 rootfs (found on linux4sam website) is being used. Also, essential modifications are done to the kernel 2.6.22 (with patch applied as guided on the linux4sam website) to support the 800x480 LCD display. Any advise on what could have gone wrong. Thanks in advance.

Well, there is also a configuration for the X server in org.openembedded.dev/packages/xserver-common/files/Xserver-at91.patch "-screen 240x320" > Will I need to recompile a version of Angstrom filesystem ? Well, maybe you can directly change the value in the JFFS2 read/write filesystem before building another image.
