Waveshare 5.5 Amoled & Touch Display plugin

yes indeed, USB cable connected to correct port on the screen. I tried with multiple USB cables making sure that they have all the pins (not just the charging ones)

ls -al /dev/input/event* returned:

ls: cannot access ‘/dev/input/event*’: No such file or directory

Then the touch device has not been detected :face_with_monocle:

Maybe post the result of

cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log

or if you are starting from scratch anyway, wait to see if that will “solve” the issue.

I haven’t yet :slight_smile:

Module “libinput” does not get loaded, which is why touch does not work. Maybe try uninstalling the Touch Display plugin, enable “Plugins Test Mode” on the “dev” page and install version 3.3.2 of the plugin.

will do, thank you :slight_smile:

@gvolt there’s nothing like fresh install :wink: working again

:grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Great!
