I would like to use USB display devices (USB to VGA cards) with android devices. My idea is to connect keyboard, mouse, monitor to mobile and use it like a notebook. The USB display devices available from displaylink has a driver available for linux and android (framebuffer driver).
I am searching for a way to use the display device and mobile as a notebook. "http://sven.killig.de/android/N1/2.2/usb_host/"; shows a way to run debian inside android and output the display to a monitor using displaylink device. This makes it work like I wanted but there is no hardware acceleration available for the debian running. The USB display devices are not capable of 3D (OpenGL or OpenGL ES). It would be good if it is possible to use the GPU available in the android devices in debian also. As debian the displaylink device supports higher resolutions only processing power is the constraint. If there is some way to use the GPU then apps can be run in full screen, video playback will also be smooth (currently rendering issues are there for apps in full screen with 1024 x 768 resolution). I have some experience in device programming so I guess I will be able to help in coding but I am very new to android. I am just in need of accelerating debian apps. I don't intend to run android apps in big screen. Thanks for any help in advance. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
