Display capabilities

After hours of searching, the following two questions remains:

Question 1: Is BB capable of outputting two different video buffers at
the same time? Eg lets say you have a TFT display connected trough the
DVI channel and a TV connected through the S-Video channel. Is it
possible to get different output on the TFT and the TV running at the
same time? If you have completed such a project please post a howto.

Question 2: Does BB support a touchscreen? Has anyone successfully
installed one of these (if you have please post a howto with specs)?

Hello,

yes, its possible. Boot with the kernel from http://code.google.com/p/beagleboard/wiki/BeagleBoardDiagnostics

After a

echo 'tv' > /sys/class/display_control/omap_disp_control/video1

you have dvi and a s-video both with different signals.

Thanks robert!

Perfect guide, and how about a good touchscreen for the BB?
