Hi everybody
I´ve got a BBB and an element14 4.3" LCD with BB-View Cape. I`ve read the user manual from element14 and tried serval methods to make booth parts working without succes.
I try to describe what i´ve done, maybe somebody knows whats wrong.
1.) Updated BBB to latest Angstrom by flashing with micro sd
=> Works just fine, no problems
2.) Downloaded BB-VIEW Angstrom Image.zip and extract the following files to an USB drive
- am335x-boneblack-lcd4.dtb
- am335x-boneblack.dtb
- kernel_modules.tar.gz
- uImage
3.) Mount the USB drive to BBB
mkdir /media/udisk
mount /dev/sda1 /media/udisk
4.) Copy Files to BBB and extract kernel_modules
cp -f /media/udisk/uImage /boot/
cp -f /media/udisk/*.dtb /boot/
tar -xvf /media/udisk/kernel_modules.tar.gz -C /
sync
=> restart BBB, by now no problems
5.) Boot BBB and open a Putty session
root@beaglebone:~# cd /boot
root@beaglebone:~# cp am335x-boneblack-lcd4.dtb am335x-boneblack.dtb
root@beaglebone:~# sync
6.) Shutdown BBB and connected BB-VIEW and LCD with BBB
7.) Restart
Referring to the user manual the LCD should work now, but nothing happens.
The BBB boots without problems and the red and green leds on the BB-VIEW board are active, but the LCD stays dark, no backlight - nothing.
I don´t know whats worng. Hope somebody can help me.
Greetings dx-nine
