Display capes and U-boot

dosnova

Dear All. I've recently bougth a BBB and a touch display cape from NHD-7.0CTP-CAPE-N NHD-7.0CTP-CAPE-N [165mm x 119.21mm] - $93.00 : Newhaven Display International, Inc., High Quality Sta…

 

There is no way to make it works with the latest debian (9.4) Stretch LXQT image provided by beagleboard.org. It seems to be an U-boot issue but for Debian newcomers it is hard to manage this stuff..

 

We would appreciate suggestions.

  • The New Haven Display user guide software compatibility section says that this display cape is compatible with Ubuntu 14.04.  Are you willing to use Ubuntu instead of the default LXQT?

     

    When I clicked on the link in the user guide, it took me to dropbox for the Ubuntu version that they recommend.  I don’t have this cape to try it, but that may make it simple for you to use your display cape and BBB computer.  Ubuntu14.04 was likely the version available when they developed this display cape.

     

    The other option listed in the user guide is Android, but Ubuntu is much more similar to Debian LXQT.
