I will let you know the image name when I get home and check the BBB. The TI-SDK Angstrom images from http://www.element14.com/community/community/knode/single-board_computers/next-gen_beaglebone?ICID=single-board-topbanner-beagleblack work just fine. Official beagleboard.org Angstrom images, or Roberts Debian images won't work without some intervention. The reasons for this are fairly simple: First is that the touch screen is wired differently and a patch to the driver is needed. Second, if you're using device tree overlays you'll need the right one for your kernel and you'll need to add some stuff to uEnv.txt to tell capemgr not to load the HDMI virtual capes and to load the BB-View overlay instead. The BB-View doesn't have an eeprom, so capemgr doesn't know the cape exists without help. Lastly, there appears to be a red/green colour swap problem in Xorg There's a good discussion of getting it working with Roberts Debian images here http://www.element14.com/community/thread/31051/l/how-to-bb-view-on-latest-debian including the necessary kernel patch. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups BeagleBoard group.

Did you get it working? I had a similar issue with the 4.3 inch version. First off insure you are using 5v adapter, usb doesnt put out enough power to power both. If you are booting up and only see the red led0 flashing, then it is your cable. Also I read somewhere for the 7inch, you need to configure it using putty/ssh connection to work properly. Just follow directions for this on http://www.element14.com/community/community/knode/single-board_computers/next-gen_beaglebone Should cover this on the full version of the user manual.
