Hi Risten,

could you please help me out.

i have try this several times now but still no success

i have 1 x waveshare 3.5 inch RPI LCD (A) and 3.5 inch RPI Display (XPT2046 touch controller)


****
Here is a step by step guide (of course, I can't guarantee that this will work for everybody; I've used it several times):

1. Install the "xf86-video-fbturbo" package
CODE: SELECT ALL
pacman -S xf86-video-fbturbo

2. Copy the waveshare driver (waveshare35a-overlay.dtb) to /boot/overlays. The driver can be found on the CD that comes with the screen, or it can be obtained as part of the driver package on the Waveshare Wiki. http://www.waveshare.com/w/upload/2/24/ ... 520.tar.gz

3. Add the following to /boot/config.txt:

CODE: SELECT ALL
start_x=1
gpu_mem=128
core_freq=250
sdram_freq=400
over_voltage=0
dtparam=spi=on
dtoverlay=waveshare35a
dtoverlay=ads7846,cs=1,penirq=17,penirq_pull=2,speed=1000000,keep_vref_on=1,swapxy=1,pmax=255,xohms=60,xmin=200,xmax=3900,ymin=200,ymax=3900
dtparam=i2c_arm=on
dtoverlay=w1-gpio-pullup,gpiopin=4,extpullup=1

4. Add the following at the end of /boot/cmdline.txt:

CODE: SELECT ALL
fbcon=map:10 fbcon=font:ProFont6x11 logo.nologo

***********************************************
until this how to add an file because the folder does not accept .txt files

5. Create the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-calibration.conf and insert the following:

CODE: SELECT ALL
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "calibration"
MatchProduct "ADS7846 Touchscreen"
Option "Calibration" "3932 300 294 3801"
Option "SwapAxes" "1"
EndSection


6. In /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-fbturbo.conf, change
CODE: SELECT ALL
Option "fbdev" "/dev/fb0"

to
CODE: SELECT ALL
Option "fbdev" "/dev/fb1"

7. Add the following to /etc/modules-load.d/raspberrypi.conf:

CODE: SELECT ALL
i2c-bcm2708
i2c-dev
flexfb width=320 height=480 regwidth=16 init=-1,0xb0,0x0,-1,0x11,-2,250,-1,0x3A,0x55,-1,0xC2,0x44,-1,0xC5,0x00,0x00,0x00,0x00,-1,0xE0,0x0F,0x1F,0x1C,0x0C,0x0F,0x08,0x48,0x98,0x37,0x0A,0x13,0x04,0x11,0x0D,0x00,-1,0xE1,0x0F,0x32,0x2E,0x0B,0x0D,0x05,0x47,0x75,0x37,0x06,0x10,0x03,0x24,0x20,0x00,-1,0xE2,0x0F,0x32,0x2E,0x0B,0x0D,0x05,0x47,0x75,0x37,0x06,0x10,0x03,0x24,0x20,0x00,-1,0x36,0x28,-1,0x11,-1,0x29,-3
fbtft_device debug=3 rotate=90 name=flexfb speed=16000000 gpios=reset:25,dc:24
ads7846_device model=7846 cs=1 gpio_pendown=17 keep_vref_on=1 swap_xy=1 pressure_max=255 x_plate_ohms=60 x_min=200 x_max=3900 y_min=200 y_max=3900


Note: The last 3 lines re: flexfb; fbtft; and ads7846_device were commented out on the Waveshare Raspberry Jessie Ready to Use image; however, they were not commented out on the Driver Installation package from the Waveshare Wiki.

8. Reboot

If you want to rotate the screen, then in /boot/config.txt change
CODE: SELECT ALL
dtoverlay=waveshare35a-overlay.dtb


to
CODE: SELECT ALL
dtoverlay=waveshare35a-overlay.dtb,rotate=270


If you rotate the screen, or if the calibration is off, you will have to calibrate the screen. I used the method from this excellent post:
post13781.html?hilit=xinput_calibrator#p13778

Cheers,
Rod








thanks in advance
