Waveshare Spotspear 3.5" Touch Screen Working with Rune

[kb06]

Hi Frank, could you find out something about it? I really wish this system working ... Please, help me to find a way.

I've followed this tutorial and got the tft working. However, after boot the runeaudio login is required.
Before this instructions is need to change something in another file, like /boot/config.txt to skip login and start RuneUi Main Page?
The browser is enabled and I have tried use fb=0 and fb=1.

Clarido, Frank, any news in this case?
I have the same issue. TFT is working, but it requires log in to Rune. I would love to see RuneUI instead of login prompt.

I think this question has been left aside by administrators, but if anyone has this same problem and gets it resolved, let us know.
Thank you!
Clarindo

Hi clarindo,

I think this question has been left aside by administrators, but

No, it has not.
But what do you think can we do without such hardware to test?

I believe the problem with the Waveshare screen and Rune may be a conflict between the fbturbo driver and xorg server that has arisen since the March 2016 Rune Audio image was posted.

I tried a fresh install of RuneAudio_rpi2_rp3_0.4-beta_20160321_2GB from http://www.runeaudio.com/download/#raspberry-pi-3. When I attempted to download the fbturbo driver

Code: Select all

pacman -Sy xf86-video-fbturbo

I received this message:

Code: Select all

looking for conflicting packages...
:: xf86-video-fbturbo-git and xorg-server are in conflict (X-ABI-VIDEODRV_VERSION). Remove xorg-server? [y/N] n
error: unresolvable package conflicts detected
error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
:: xf86-video-fbturbo-git and xorg-server are in conflict (X-ABI-VIDEODRV_VERSION<23

I could not figure out how to fix this problem. (I tried uninstalling and reinstalling xorg and various other files, but nothing worked.)

So, I got out my old image where the Waveshare screen was working, and copied fbturbo_drv.so (dated 11/22/2015) to /lib/xorg/modules/drivers. (I also followed the other steps outlined in the first post of this thread.)

After rebooting, the screen booted to the Rune interface, and touch worked.

I would be happy to attach the driver, but the upload attachment feature won't let me.

But the RuneAudio interface is shown for you?
For me the 3.5 display worked but he stopped in login console. Don't showed the interface for me.

I'm using the Waveshare 3.5 display and Rpi 2 model B.

Worked for me now.
I found the fbturbo driver in my LCD3.5 Waveshare image and copy to /lib/xorg/modules/drivers and solved my problem.
Thanks for shared.

In attach I uploaded the files for it.

I am having troubles with this as well, They just put out a new RuneAudio so maybe that is my issue? All i get is the same white screen

Hi everyone, i am new to this forum and the RuneAudio player and i recently bought a TFT touch screen off ebay but i am having the following issue:

On RaspberryPi 2 and using the latest version of RuneAudio(beta) i login normally to access the console [User:root Pass:rune] but i can not type commands because the system boots into the player even after i log in to have terminal access!!

Trying to run this: pacman -Sy xf86-video-fbturbo in order to get my TFT unstuck from the log in screen

Always after login to terminal a white screen appears and i am inside the player before i can type any command
If anyone knows how to make the terminal stay i would greatly appreciate it
Thanks

One suggestion: Look under Settings in the Rune Audio Menu and make sure Local Browser is set to off.
