Hi Juergen,
one thing upfront: the boards I'm using are micro2440, not mini2440.
Every FAQ I read told me they' re practically the same, but perhaps that
wrong, too, so I thought I'd mention that before anything else.

The A70 display support is part of the Mini2440 platform since the beginning
in march 2009 (commit hash is 5102aa4acdbde305646ae60c5eec7042b5016a0e). I
had expected it should work, as it is part of the mainline kernel. But I have
none of this displays to really test it.
Well, I tried it with both the current kernel 3.4.4 and a quite old one
(2.6.39) now (both compiled using ptxdist-2012.06.0) now, and both
result in the same black display. Either my configuration ist wrong (but
I don't know what to change at all), or it actually doesn't work and
hasn't worked for some time. Theres only one older kernel with patch
files in the BSP (2.6.38), I will give that one a try as well.
The screen itself isn't the problem, by the way - I tried starting the
(chines) linux demo that came installed with the boards, and everything
worked fine.
Did you read this:

Yes, I found that while googleing - but it doesn't work either. Changing the
fbset parameters like pixclock does absolutely nothing to the screen. It just
stays dark. If you refer to the kernel source code comparison Peter did there,
I have no idea what to make of that on my end.
