Please try adding
dtoverlay=rpi-ft5406
to your “boot/userconfig.txt”.
If that should not work you would probably instead have to add
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d-pi5
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-dsi-7inch,dsi0
for a display connected to “CAM/DISP 0” or
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d-pi5
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-dsi-7inch
for a display connected to “CAM/DISP 1” to “/boot/userconfig.txt”.
Display rotation set on the Touch Display’s config page will probably not work when using “dtoverlay=vc4-kms-…”.
thanks, i will try that.
Hi,
I have a Pi 5 with Voumio 3.569 that did not show any screen.
the
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d-pi5
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-dsi-7inch
worked fine, display slot 1
Thanks alot #gvolt 
Good morning,
when I try to update my library it stops and the following error is reported:
error: MPD error: Error: This socket has been terminated by the other party
error: This socket has been terminated by the other party {“code”:“EPIPE”}
Any advice?
I migrated from rpi4 to rpi5 (new install). The booting time is much shorted and the audio quality is much better.
Problem my Volumio on rpi5 doens’t work with waveshare 7.9" LCD HDMI display 400x1280. I have spent tons of hours - still dark.
The only progress I have made is only with the following line in (user)config.txt:
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d-pi5
After boot screen starts to work but:
Hi, nie jesteś sam 
Here is thread about this problem:
but still not solve.
It is problem with all Waveshare, all with not standard resolution.
That is expected, see post #89:
Please post the output of
cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log
Thank you.
I will post the log when I get home
Just to be clear: Touch display starts when I remove line: dtoverlay=vc4-kms-… from config.txt
When line is active - Error connecting to Xserver
So for sure it is not a problem with Touch display addon itself.
For some reason the Xserver seems to fail to start with that option.
If you are back home please also post the output of

Please try the following:
Stop the Touch Display plugin.
As root 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.
It works
but the question is how to rotate the screen?
Many, many thanks!!!
Please post the output of
/usr/bin/xrandr --display :0 --query
Here you are
volumio@volumio2:~$ /usr/bin/xrandr --display :0 --query
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 400 x 1280, maximum 8192 x 8192

320x1480 59.32

thank you!
Try to manually rotate the display clockwise by running
xrandr --output HDMI-1 --rotate right
no luck this time:
volumio@volumio2:~$ xrandr --output HDMI-1 --rotate right
Can’t open display
volumio@volumio2:~$ sudo xrandr --output HDMI-1 --rotate right
[sudo] password for volumio:
Can’t open display
Yes, my bad. Command has to read
xrandr --display :0 --output HDMI-1 --rotate right
You are the man!!!
It works - now I have a working display
thank you!!!
well, after quick check it seems Now Playing plugin doesn’t work.
but for now I am really glad I can ‘see’ my Volumio back.
The really added value of RP5 is speed and audio quality.
@gvolt
Many thanks for you time and final solution (at least work around)!!!
