zgoda_j Posted March 15, 2016 Posted March 15, 2016 I can't get the LeMaker 5in LCD working with Armbian 5.04 legacy on LeMaker BananaPro.

Following LeMaker wiki, proper fex and ft5x_ts should be everything to get this LCD working.
zgoda_j Posted March 16, 2016 Author Posted March 16, 2016 Compiled fbturbo X11 driver, set up X11 with fluxbox and nodm, xserver starts without problems but nothing is displayed on LCD, black screen. No errors in /var/log/Xorg.0.log.
tkaiser Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 Instead of compiling stuff you should look at the right places first. How does the output of bin2fex </boot/script.bin | grep screen._output_type looks like?
zgoda_j Posted March 16, 2016 Author Posted March 16, 2016 screen0_output_type = 1 screen1_output_type = 2 Same as in https://github.com/LeMaker/fex_configuration/blob/master/fex/banana_pro_5lcd.fex
tkaiser Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 screen0_output_type = 1 screen1_output_type = 2 This looks good. Maybe there's something wrong with the kernel command line (/boot/boot.cmd) or the reason is we use a different u-boot? I doubt any of the devs has this LCD (or any of them -- at least I consider them heavily overpriced and use HDMI LCDs instead) and can help. But in case you might provide the contents of uEnv.txt and the u-boot version used with a LeMaker image where the LCD works (you tested that already, right?) anyone might have an idea (or at least googling might be easier whether this is a more general problem)
zgoda_j Posted March 16, 2016 Author Posted March 16, 2016 On working instance (it's Arch from LeMaker download section): # cat /boot/uEnv.txt aload_script=fatload $device $partition 0x43000000 /script.bin; aload_kernel=fatload $device $partition 0x48000000 /uImage;bootm 0x48000000 uenvcmd=run aload_script aload_kernel bootargs=console=ttyS0,115200 consoleblank=0 console=tty0 disp.screen0_output_mode=1920x1080p60:EDID hdmi.audio=EDID:0 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootfstype=ext4 elevator=deadline rootwait quiet loglevel=3 I don't know how to get uBoot version from within the running linux system, I don't have access to UBOOT button to trigger FEL mode (sbc is enclosed in the case I can't disassemble). I doubt ODM has changed anything there so most probably this is stock LeMaker.
tkaiser Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 I don't know how to get uBoot version from within the running linux system Just dump the first sectors through strings and search for 'u-boot': dd if=/dev/mmcblk0 bs=256K count=1 | strings | grep -i u-boot Have you had a look into the script.bin used there? Maybe it's setting 'screen1_output_type = 1'?
zgoda_j Posted March 16, 2016 Author Posted March 16, 2016 U-Boot SPL 2014.04-10733-gbb5691c (Dec 18 2014 - 12:54:35) Fex configuration is vanilla LeMaker one.
Igor Posted March 16, 2016 Posted March 16, 2016 Legacy kernel based Armbian is working with 7"LCD from lemaker - you only need to exchange FEX and load the module ... i think 5 and 7 shares same one. Try with removing module: a20_tp
zgoda_j Posted March 17, 2016 Author Posted March 17, 2016 $ lsmod Module Size Used by cpufreq_userspace 3524 0 spidev 6366 0 ft5x_ts 44223 0 ap6211 624553 0 But I still see nothing on LCD. The difference between 7in and 5in is that 7in is LVDS and 5in is RGB but it's purely internal. I see no changes in display related sections in FEX config and boot args between my working device and the one I'm trying to set up. I'm going to give Bananian a try, maybe this way I get any working configuration. I see LeMaker site has 15.04, will try both 15.04 and 15.08.
Igor Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 OK, report back how it went. I have 7inch LCD and (any) Banana right beside me and can do the test later on.
zgoda_j Posted March 17, 2016 Author Posted March 17, 2016 With Bananian 15.08 and procedure from LeMaker wiki I got 5in LCD working, FEX changes is all that is required to have working display (without touch feature, of course). I took the whole sections from https://github.com/LeMaker/fex_configuration/blob/master/fex/banana_pro_5lcd.fex- ctp_para, ctp_list_para, disp_init and lcd0_para. Will debug more later on.
tkaiser Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 With Bananian 15.08 Which u-boot version (most likely 2015.07 but just to be sure)?
zgoda_j Posted March 17, 2016 Author Posted March 17, 2016 Currently: U-Boot SPL 2015.10 (Dec 21 2015 - 09:41:49) and it works. It was working with 2015.07 as well.
tkaiser Posted March 17, 2016 Posted March 17, 2016 Currently: U-Boot SPL 2015.10 (Dec 21 2015 - 09:41:49) and it works. It was working with 2015.07 as well. Well, maybe downgrading u-boot helps with Armbian then?

zgoda_j Posted March 17, 2016 Author Posted March 17, 2016 I'm sorry guys, I had one wrong value in FEX in lcd0_para section, lcd_if = 8 (should read 0). I don't know what I was thinking about. Now everything works OK, including touch interface with ft5x_ts. Thank you for your support. 1
zgoda_j Posted March 17, 2016 Author Posted March 17, 2016 Of other good news, the all "compiling stuff" gave me working OpenGL ES as X11 OpenGL backend and I have QtQuick for the 1st time on ARM.
