Hi All,
Hope all is well.
I wanted to ask for your help please with the following issue I am facing when running volumio v3.742 on a rasberry pi 5 with the 3.5in Touch Screen display - tft35a (https://community.volumio.com/uploads/default/original/2X/9/906df123d55abf7979b83e3bddd77970348e67c6.jpeg). On the screen I only see the linux console/terminal. When trying to enable to touch plugin I am getting an error stating Error connecting to Xserver/. I have tested this version of volumio on a different raspberry pi (3B+) with the same touchscreen and it is working as expected. The issues seems to be only on the Pi5.
Many thanks for your support,
Luis
If I am correct these are the steps to perform, after the touch display plugin:
sudo apt-get -y install xserver-xorg-video-fbturbo
sudo apt-get -y install xserver-xorg-input-evdev
sudo cp /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-evdev.conf /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/45-evdev.conf
sudo curl -L https://github.com/goodtft/LCD-show/raw/master/usr/tft35a-overlay.dtb -o /boot/overlays/tft35a.dtbo
sudo curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/goodtft/LCD-show/master/usr/99-calibration.conf-35-90 -o /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-calibration.conf
sudo curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/goodtft/LCD-show/master/usr/99-fbturbo.conf -o /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-fbturbo.conf
sudo sed 's/fb1/fb0/' -i /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-fbturbo.conf

@Wheaten, thank you very much for your prompt support. This is now working as expected.
The thanks goes to our Display guru @gvolt. He solved my issue with a similar display.
But thanks for reporting back,
