I have been browsing alibaba and the web for quite a while without a 
solution so far.

I want to use the BBB and either Android or Linux (Debian) as core of a 
production project (thousands of pieces planned).

The main issue I am stuck right now is finding a small display 2.5-4.5 
inches which can be connected and is supported by the linux kernel.
Almost all displays have one or another protocol which would have to be 
implemented.
Writing a kernel driver for a display is a big "no go" for me. Aside of 
possible problems and issues it's just too much hassle.

So I was looking for HDMI displays but in this size there is nearly nothing 
available, HDMI starts at 7 inches.
I could find a few composite displays of that size, that however would 
suggest using the PI instead of the BBB. 
I like the BBB way more and would like to go with it.


I am sure I have not been the only one with this problem.
Which small displays have been used ? I need a "lowcost" device that can 
easily be ordered in hundreds of pieces.
A (capacitive) touchscreen feature would be perfect but it's not a 
must-have.

If a non HDMI display shall be used, is there something I could look for 
which is supported by the linux kernel ?

Help appreciated!
