Hi, these errors appears when trying to use the auto-install-online script :

FATAL ERROR: Unrecognized check name "gpios_property" grep: /boot/tmp.dts: No such file or directory rm: cannot remove '/boot/tmp.dts': No such file or directory FATAL ERROR: Unrecognized check name "gpios_property" grep: /boot/tmp.dts: No such file or directory rm: cannot remove '/boot/tmp.dts': No such file or directory FATAL ERROR: Unrecognized check name "gpios_property" grep: /boot/tmp.dts: No such file or directory rm: cannot remove '/boot/tmp.dts': No such file or directory FATAL ERROR: Unrecognized check name "gpios_property" grep: /boot/tmp.dts: No such file or directory rm: cannot remove '/boot/tmp.dts': No such file or directory FATAL ERROR: Unrecognized check name "gpios_property" grep: /boot/tmp.dts: No such file or directory rm: cannot remove '/boot/tmp.dts': No such file or directory FATAL ERROR: Unrecognized check name "gpios_property" grep: /boot/tmp.dts: No such file or directory rm: cannot remove '/boot/tmp.dts': No such file or directory FATAL ERROR: Unrecognized check name "gpios_property" grep: /boot/tmp.dts: No such file or directory rm: cannot remove '/boot/tmp.dts': No such file or directory FATAL ERROR: Unrecognized check name "gpios_property" grep: /boot/tmp.dts: No such file or directory rm: cannot remove '/boot/tmp.dts': No such file or directory FATAL ERROR: Unrecognized check name "gpios_property"

The Display is not working except for the backlight.

I tried to install the drivers with the latest version of raspbian lite.

KERNEL VERSION : Linux raspberrypi 4.19.66+ #1253 Thu Aug 15 11:37:30 BST 2019 armv6l GNU/Linux

Good news, I believe I've found a solution to the errors! Short answer: Manually update device tree compiler.

Long explanation: I was getting the same error on my Banana Pi M2 Zero running Raspian stretch. However, it worked on my Raspberry Pi Zero W (v1.3). I checked the source code where the errors were appearing and I notice that dtc (device tree compiler) seemed to be the culprit. I check the dtc version on both the Raspberry pi and the Banana pi with dtc -v

This returned version 1.4.7 on the Raspberry Pi but 1.4.4 on the Banana Pi. Unfortunately, running sudo apt-get install device-tree-compiler just returned a message that dtc was already the latest version. I found where all the dtc versions are stored and downloaded device-tree-compiler_1.4.7-1_armhf.deb.

First I ran sudo ./mzdpi-vga-uninstall (found under MZDPI/vga) just in case the failed MZDPI install messed something up. Then I navigated to where I downloaded the .deb file and ran sudo apt install ./device-tree-compiler_1.4.7-1_armhf.deb. No errors occurred during the update and when I tried dtc -v again, it returned 1.4.7!

Finally, I ran sudo ./mzdpi-vga-autoinstall-online and it installed with no errors! Unfortunately, I don't have a display myself to test if it actually works (I wanted to check if the drivers were compatible in the first place before I bought), but I don't see any reason why it shouldn't work now.

@TheLastMillennial Wow thanks for your research. I'll test this out this morning to verify it's working 😃
