There already seem to be some amazing threads on this topic in this, at times, amazing forum. I hadn't looked before but I ran into these:

They seem to spell out the dilemma quite well. It would be interesting to know whether anyone could improve upon them. I certainly hadn't expected these sort of complications but they do seem to be addressed. The installation could be one source of the quality issues you mentioned, if these types of displays are as temperamental as they seem.

The AliExpress store mentioned is still around and they are having a sale! They seem to be selling the screen and cable as a single unit. If you can get one for $70 - $100 US(?) that's looking like a good deal. It's disappointing how much these things cost.

I'll get back about Obuntu shortly when I've got a bit more time.
