Does Manual Install Actually Work? #39

Closed drewcovi closed 4 years ago

drewcovi commented 6 years ago

I'm attempting to get hyperpixel working on Raspberry Pi with only the config.txt and overlays.

According to the readme I should only need to:

Enable Legacy GL driver
Copy/Paste config.txt variables
Ensure overlays are present

I don't need to hotplug the display... but doing the above led to a dark display with no response.

Actually in all cases hyperpixel-init is required. The instructions aren't very clear on that point. The display will basically do nothing until it's initialised.
