Re: pitft touch screen not working
There are two PiTFT screens capacitive and resistive did you download the correct version? Which PiTFT do you have?

Sorry I don't know which version I have. In the order it says "PiTFT Mini Kit - 320x240 2.8" TFT+Touchscreen for Raspberry Pi[ID:1601]"

If you have an extra SD card or haven't add anything to the one you have you might consider downloading the pre compiled image with the drivers already installed as a test.

Re: pitft touch screen not working
I have just done that, with the same result.
I assembled the TFT on my own. May it be possible that I can see an image on the screen but no touch screen support, due bad soldering joints?

Re: pitft touch screen not working
Could you post clear pictures of both sides of your board showing any soldering you have done and the connections to it?
We'll take a look.
