On a clean rasbian install (RP 2) I followed the
new instructions to install the 3.5" PiTFT drivers. This all went fine. I selected the option to always display the console.
When ssh-ed into the box I can successfully start X Server by running
Code: Select all
export FRAMEBUFFER=/dev/fb1
startx
However if I set always start GUI via raspi-config, the system boots and I see the console, then it blanks and I see a blank screen with a solid cursor in top corner. FRAMEBUFFER wasn't in my env vars before I export it so it's not over writing anything.
I tried to set FRAMEBUFFER in /etc/profile to see if it'd make a difference bit it didn't.
What am I missing? I just want the pi to always boot to the GUI.
Thanks for any help.
