Great to see further progress. Keep it up!
At the Dutch T-Dose conference had a couple of visitors at the FSFE-booth mentioning how great it would be if finally a totally free laptop would become available. Have referred them to this project because this seems the only sensible approach to reach this ultimate end goal, and because it shows just how difficult it is to achieve this goal in a voluntary effort. Getting a fully free laptop is certainly easier set then done.
Furthermore I couldn't help but notice that one of the most restricted laptops in the world is being used to create the most free laptop in the world.

it's by no means perfect, but i have at least data on-screen. i suspect EM interference is causing the corruption, so another revision of PCB1 will need the LVDS IC layout to be reworked. this is however huge progress. the only 2 parts of PCB1 that need to be checked and debugged are the MicroSD card slot and the 1W speaker/headphone amplifier circuits. the CM108AH USB Audio IC has already been confirmed as operational on the USB bus, as has the GL850G and the 3 USB ports.
