I have just completed a fresh install of FydeOS on a Pi 5, and I’m trying to get a touchscreen to work with it. The specific touchscreen I have is a Waveshare 10.1inch DSI LCD (C).
In the installation process of using this screen with rPi bookworm or alike, you need to navigate to the config.txt file in the root folder, after writing it to your SD card, and add:
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d
#DSI1 Use
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-dsi-waveshare-panel,10_1_inch
#DSI0 Use
#dtoverlay=vc4-kms-dsi-waveshare-panel,10_1_inch,dsi0
I have attempted to do the same here but to no sucess. I have tried also commenting out the default display settings already in the file, but the same result occurs.
I have also checked that this system works properly when operating on a normal Pi OS.
Can anyone point me in the right direction of something I can try to fix this issue?
No sorry, I have not figured out how to solve this issue.
I put the project aside for the holidays, but I’ll probably pick it up again soon.
My last thought for a solution was to just try a different OS; but I’d rather not if I can avoid it.
Maybe it uses 1 by default? Since the syntax works with PiOS definitely. When I first booted I didn’t realise you had to do it and it didn’t work, but after adding it did. Just doesn’t seem to play as nice with other OS
Gave this a try but it’s no different to using a file editor to edit the config.txt directly on the SD card. So still the same issue. Wondering if there’s some additional driver support needed on fydeOS before you can use this particular DSI display
