Intel Bay Trail support? (Gen 7 graphics, Celeron J1900 CPU)

[Jan Mikkelsen]

Hi,

Thanks, that’s good to know.

Is it reasonable to expect a Bay Trail system to support 1024x768 VESA with 16 or 24 bit colour depth, and no other acceleration?

I’m thinking about how a Bay Trail system would work while software issues are resolved.

Regards,

Jan.
