Good news so far :-)

How do they "not work" ?

I've tested both here using modetest without any issue, neither with renesas-
devel-20150729-v4.2-rc4 nor with renesas-drivers-2015-07-14-v4.2-rc2. To test 
HDMI, I ran (your connector numbers may vary)

modetest -M rcar-du -s 44:1280x800@AR24

and to test LVDS

modetest -M rcar-du -s 46:1280x800@AR24

after applying Morimoto-san's AA121TD01 panel patch.

The HDMI tests were performed twice, once with the display connected at boot 
and once after connecting the display at runtime. Both worked fine, the screen 
showed the fbdev console and the test pattern when running modetest.

As my LVDS panel is an AA104XD12 the image showed some artifacts when fed with 
1280x800 (most notably cropping and a bit of flickering), but it worked 
nonetheless.

I couldn't reproduce that crash either.

That might be a bit of a stupid question, but have you verified that the 
connectors pinout (both data and backlight) is compatible ?
