I will wait for stable version.
Now I can’t rotate and Touch Screen not working. Only this I have few sec.
and restart without Touch Screen.
Touch Screen try to start only first time after “Active On”
I will wait and ask for help on stable 3.584.
Please post the ouput of
ls -al /dev/fb*
and with the Touch Display plugin being started of
cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log
I need to add it to userconfig.txt or on command line after start ??
and this ??
Sorry if it is stupid question.
Not “userconfig.txt”. After connecting to Volumio via SSH paste each command to the command line (one after the other of course 
) and hit enter. Copy the output and paste it into your next post in this thread.

volumio@volumio:~$
It is without modifications of userconfig.txt
Stop the Touch Display plugin.
On Volumio’s command line become root by excuting
su
(root’s password is “volumio”, too).
Then execute
cat >> /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-vc4.conf <<EOL
Section "OutputClass"
Identifier "vc4"
MatchDriver "vc4"
Driver "modesetting"
Option "PrimaryGPU" "true"
EndSection
EOL
Start the Touch Display plugin again.
It is my first time Should I put it line by line ??
no just copy the complete block at once and run it.
I have Volumio Touch Screen but rotate right.
If you are still root type
exit
and hit “Enter”.
Then execute
mkdir /home/volumio/.config/openbox
and
cat >> /home/volumio/.config/openbox/autostart <<EOL
xrandr --output HDMI-1 --rotate left
EOL
Stop and start the Touch Display plugin.
Works !!!
I have to do it all time after restart ??
EDIT:
after restart still ok
No.
Thank you very much !!!
Do you know why I dont have HDMI signal on 3.569 but on 3.584 have it ??
Can I use 3.584 till finall version ?? Play music from my USB converter.
Probably kernel related.
I guess so.

Do you know if this modification will be included in the next firmware upgrade?
Which one ??
If you asked about working Waveshare 11.9" - my started to work on next firmware 3.584 ( but now it is Beta ver. ). I use it because it was my problem solution.
It would be nice to have a brief sum up of what’s been modified to get it to work. I’ve just picked up the 7.9" display; effectively the same albeit smaller.
I’ve grabbed the beta (3.584) and the display seems to work. Only issue is the touch mapping is off/still orientated for a portrait layout, and I don’t see where that particular tweak is in this thread after a few up and down skims.
TIA
For the touch mapping. On my waveshare there is a button behind the screen. Every time you push it and hold for 5 seconds it changes touch orientation. You need to repeat it, until it match (works) with your screen orientation. On waweshare wiki page there is as well ‚software’ solution for changing touch orientation (recommended one). I use that one with button behind.
