RPi SenseHAT on Tinkerboard

[chwe]

I played a bit with the SenseHAT from the RPi guys. Doesn't work fully but I get the first things working.  

What does run:

• Joystick
• 8x8 led matrix (partly, seems that there are some parts of the framebuffer not fully working)

What doesn't run:

• all the sensors attached on the board

What's missing:

• load it devicetree overlay (at the moment it's coded into the main dts)
• how-to what's needed to get it working on your tinker too

 

 

I'll keep you updated.

I wrote some C code to talk to the sense hat from Armbian. The display works fine and so do the sensors:
