Re: raspberrypi-kernel : Breaks: raspberrypi-bootloader (< 1
Hello, I'm trying to install via the script but it keeps failing at:
I did it once before a day before this but had to reflash the drive today, and now I am getting this every time for every option.

Re: raspberrypi-kernel : Breaks: raspberrypi-bootloader (< 1
do you have pip installed? try "sudo apt-get install python-pip"

Re: raspberrypi-kernel : Breaks: raspberrypi-bootloader (< 1
I just tried it again, I did have PIP installed. Reinstalled and it still had an issue where it was timing out trying to install packages. I tried it again this morning and it worked without issue.

Re: raspberrypi-kernel : Breaks: raspberrypi-bootloader (< 1
Thank you for this. I've fiddled around with the old instructions for a week, Stretch, Jessie, the images you provide, uncountable tips and tricks via Google, but nothing worked correctly on my RPI3 / PiTFT+ 3.5r.adafruit2 wrote:ok here's my first draft! its for all pitft acreens.
$ cd ~
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/adafr ... helper2.sh
$ chmod +x adafruit-pitft-helper2.sh
$ sudo ./adafruit-pitft-helper2.sh
you can select text console or PIXEL graphical!
I finally got it running on Stretch with this helper script. Flashed a new image with /boot/ssh and /boot/wpa_supplicant.conf for a headless install. Then logged in with ssh and did: passwd; sudo apt update; sudo apt upgrade; sudo dpkg-reconfigure locales; sudo raspi-config --expand-rootfs; sudo reboot; and then your script. And it works fine.
The only confusing thing were the two questions:
I didn't understand this as "only console". I was expecting the console lines during boot, but not stop at a console prompt. Perhaps you can ask "Do you want the console [c] or the graphical interface [g] to be displayed?" or similar instead?Would you like the console to appear on the PiTFT display? [y/n]
And I wasn't sure what to make of the other question either:
With testing I got a blank screen with "n" as answer and the X I was looking for with a "y". Why would I want a blank screen? :)Would you like the HDMI display to mirror to the PiTFT display? [y/n]
Oh and it works fine being called multiple times while trying the different options too.

Re: raspberrypi-kernel : Breaks: raspberrypi-bootloader (< 1
if you have PIXEL running, you can output it to HDMI and then mirror that to the pitft

Re: raspberrypi-kernel : Breaks: raspberrypi-bootloader (< 1
Yes, but why would I want to say "n" to that question? Are there other X desktops that would work without the mirroring?adafruit2 wrote:if you have PIXEL running, you can output it to HDMI and then mirror that to the pitft

Re: raspberrypi-kernel : Breaks: raspberrypi-bootloader (< 1
it takes time/memory to do the mirroring. so if you wanted to just use pygame to display images directly, maybe better to skip HDMI and write directly!

Re: raspberrypi-kernel : Breaks: raspberrypi-bootloader (< 1
I recently purchased the 2.4" TFT resistive screen for my Raspberry Pi version 3b, which was already running Debian Stretch. After running the script, the console now shows up on the TFT screen, thanks! I will keep you posted, but because I am a Linux expert, I think I can take it from here. :-) The main thing I wanted was a text console on the little screen, and your script accomplished that much at least. After booting, the HDMI monitor still shows the "Welcome to the Raspberry Pi Desktop" splash screen. Nice work.

Hi,
I followed this thread without success, graphical output in HDMI but nothing in PiTFT.
- pi2 + PiTFT 2.8 resistive
- fresh 2017-09-07-raspbian-stretch
- apt-get update & apt-get upgrade, then reboot
- and the following script options:
Ideas are welcome. Thanks.

Re: raspberrypi-kernel : Breaks: raspberrypi-bootloader (< 1
what happens if you put the console on the PiTFT? can you take a photo of what it looks like on your Pi?

Re: raspberrypi-kernel : Breaks: raspberrypi-bootloader (< 1
ok so it definitely *works* just not fbcp mode? run the script but put it back into HDMI mirror mode, whats on your TV/HDMI?

Re: raspberrypi-kernel : Breaks: raspberrypi-bootloader (< 1
and what I see in HDMI output:
and in PiTFT a black screen.
Other thing I checked, the HDMI output from the clean Stretch (before runing PiTFT script ) the image is fitting perfectly in the monitor display after the script execution,
it is as seen in the picture.
Any idea? Thanks.
