Well it wasn't quite 'out of the box', and it involved more reading of spec sheets and manuals that I was expecting, but finally I have 'this display' (https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07MH93747) working. [image: http://www.cjh.me.uk/MyPhotobucket/cache/DIYHifi/Jivelite/240x240/Waveshare1_640.jpg] Naturally the changes turned out to be very minor, but of course you can't tell that at first when it doesn't work first time, and you don't know if you've even got the wiring right. Here's how I have it configured: 1) WIRING (TO MATCH THE PIRATE AUDIO BOARDS AS CLOSELY AS POSSIBLE) VCC: Connect to 3.3V. I used pin 1. It also works on 5V without any apparent harm, but is much brighter, so is possibly being over-driven. On 3.3V it seems to match the Pirate Audio brightness GND: GND, naturally. I used pin 6 DIN: BCM10 CLK: BCM11 CS: BCM8 DC: BCM9 RST: BCM27 (This one is not present on the Pirate Audio boards, but is needed in the fbtft_device setup. I suspect other pins can be used.) BL: BCM13 (A different pin can be used here, provided the backlight brightness script is adjusted accordingly) 2) DRIVER CONFIGURATION: No changes required to the 'modprobe flexfb' command. Change the 'modprobe flexfb' command to: Code: -------------------- modprobe fbtft_device name=flexfb speed=32000000 gpios=dc:9,reset:27 -------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ chill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=111502 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list unix@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
