Hi,
I would like to add a display for my Beaglebone. Just for display only and touch is not necessary. I found the "Adafruit PiTFT 2.2" HAT Mini Kit - 320x240 2.2" TFT - No Touch" is good for me but not sure does this product support "SPI TFT Python library ILI9341" or not?
Thanks in advance
Kenneth

Re: Adafruit PiTFT 2.2" HAT Mini Kit Support ILI9341
Hi, I've used several SPI LCDs with BeagleBone Black.
You can use it as the system display (e.g. framebuffer) using the FBTFT driver. Here is a blog post I wrote: BeagleBone Black LCDs with Prebuilt FBTFT drivers
It shows how to use the Adafruit 2.2" TFT LCD with the ILI9340 controller.
I've written several more posts about this topic.
The fbtft wiki has a list of LCD modules and list of LCD shields/hats that are supported by fbtft.
Aside from fbtft, I have also used the User-space SPI TFT Python Library - ILI9341 OK with the 2.2" TFT LCD and my BeagleBone Black.
