It stays black! Is that becasue the BBB isn´t configured for this display or becasue the little PCB needs to be connected. My Problem is I don´t have an micro HDMI cable here right now to see if the Cape is recognized by the board or not. I was under the impression that I wouldn´t need it, because it was plug and play :( Has anybody an BBB running with this cape and display and can give me some tips on how to configure it. Kindest Regards and many Thanks in advance.

Hi Berthold, I bought this cape too, but without the LCD, which I have many over my table, and have cable and monitor, to test. Could I know if you make this cape works already ? if not, and I make some success :) I will share here.
