hi experts,
i follow this this guideline(PiScreen Driver installation instruction) to setup my LCD, the IMG i use is 2015-05-05-raspbian-wheezy.
when i type this command(fbi -noverbose -T 1 -a -d /dev/fb1 image-test.gif), there is nothing on LCD screen.
root@raspberrypi:~# fbi -noverbose -T 1 -a -d /dev/fb1 image-test.gifusing “DejaVu Sans Mono-16”, pixelsize=16.67 file=/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-dejavu/DejaVuSansMono.ttf
below is dmesg log:

BRs,
ShannonPlease comment out this line by placing a ‘#’ in front;

If that fails to work, download the image below. PiScreen should work on first boot.

Mmmm… the above log looks like it loaded. And after step 3 above, steps should get the driver loaded. (A few other things need to be done to get X windows and the console on PiSCreen)
Some questions;
1)Is this the test you did?sudo apt-get install fbi wget https://ozzmaker.com/piscreen/image-test.gif sudo fbi -noverbose -T 1 -a -d /dev/fb1 image-test.gif2)Can you tell if the backlight has come on?
3)Is the screen black or white?
4)can you show me the output ofsudo vcdbg log msgMark --OzzMaker.com --
Everything looks fine in those logs.
You shouldn’t ever have a white screen. One list thing… can you please take a photo of the white screen and upload it to the forum.

Hi Mark,
Actually, I am not sure that the LCD with white screen, maybe i confuse the LCD backlight with white screen.
Attach file is the running photo, the screen does not change from PI power on.
Thanks.
BRs,
