Jean refers us to this article by Eric Wazhung about interfacing LVDS displays using an 8-bit AVR:
Different displays have different (undocumented) functionality. With the several I’ve tested, I’ve attempted to create a step-by-step procedure to get a new display going (or find out early-on if it’s not possible. So far I haven’t run into one that couldn’t be coaxed into working with this system).
Several of the tested LVDS displays were removed from old 12in G3/G4 iBooks. Two revisions of the same Samsung model, a Chi-Mei, and a Boe-Hydis have been tested. All are pretty standard laptop TFTs: 1024×768, FPD-Link/LVDS single-channel, DE-Only displays. (The code is written to work with non DE-Only displays–those that pay attention to the H-sync and V-sync signals–but this is untested.)
Each display has its quirks and its benefits.
