Screen works, touch doesn't

Post by dbsanders »

I received a PiTFT Plus 320x240 2.8" TFT + Capacitive Touchscreen - Assembled - Pi 2, Model A+ / B+ (PID: 2423) with a Raspberry Pi 2B. I used the latest full Jessie image (not lite). The display works, but touch does not. Running evtest shows no events when touching the screen:

Code: Select all

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo evtest /dev/input/touchscreen
Input driver version is 1.0.1
Input device ID: bus 0x0 vendor 0x0 product 0x0 version 0x0
Input device name: "ft6x06_ts"

Testing ... (interrupt to exit)
I re-seated the cable several times, and still no touch. Any suggestions?
