I ordered a Overo Fire with a Palo35 board and the 3.5 LG LCD. They forgot to send the LCD, and when I finally got it in, I hooked everything up. On boot up I get a white screen and then a lot of visual corruption, that then goes back to a white screen and stays like that. There was some damage on the Palo35 board, so I RMA'ed the board, thinking that was the culprit. Now, with the new board, I still have the same issues. I am sure I have the LCD hooked up right, and I am not sure what else could cause this. Here is my current setup: Overo Fire Palo35 3.5 LG LCD 5V power adapter Is the power adapter the wrong type? Any suggestions or help is welcomed. - Andrew |

Is no one willing to help a newbie to gumstix? I connected to it through hyperterminal and tried to set the environment to the LCD, but it does not accept the command "setenv". There really should be some detailed documentation for all this. - Andrew darthtux wrote: > > I ordered a Overo Fire with a Palo35 board and the 3.5 LG LCD.

I have no experience with the Overo system, but maybe you would catch people's attention with a Subject heading that was more descriptive. just a suggestion! even take a photo if you can!

Not sure I understand your question, but if you wish to communicate via LCD terminal window then it will expect input to come from a standard keyboard. Plug in a usb keyboard and see if you have better success. Nothing should need to change with the environment for that to work.

Thankyou sooooo much for the help Edgardo. It is working now and I love it. Thanks to everyone for helping me figure this out.

Hello, Did you follow the setenv defaultdisplay lcd35 with saveenv? The instructions are there on the website, it is a bit hard to follow at first. Go to the setup and programing section and start at the beginning, then go step by step. To give you the answer; via kermit or hypertem (what ever your using), -Stop the boot process, this means either restart or start the unit after plugging into the console and connecting -type:# printenv This will show you what the current configuration is. -type:# setenv defaultdisplay lcd35 This tells the COM that your using the lcd, and sets the resolution accordingly. -type:# saveenv This saves it and makes it persistent. -type:# boot This continues the boot process. If I recall correctly it seemed to me the first time I booted mine it took a while to get the image on the display. Set your environment as about then boot and give it at least 5 min. If it is a fresh install it may still be unpacking the rootfs (root file system). Its all right here on this page, but if you have not read the pages previous I recommend you do. http://www.gumstix.net/Setup-and-Programming/view/Overo-Setup-and-Programming/Getting-started/111.html I hope this helps. I'm a two-year-noob myself, so please if I am wrong about something, correct me.

Ok, thanks for the replies. I guess I could have been more descriptive in the subject, sorry. I just followed the instructions to set the environment before boot and it all seemed to go well, but it did not make a difference on the display. After boot, the screen is just white with small amounts of graphical corruption at the top of the screen. I don't really have a good camera, but I will try to take a decent picture of it with my phone. - Andrew Joe2 wrote: > > Hello, > Did you follow the setenv defaultdisplay lcd35 with saveenv? > The instructions are there on the website, it is a bit hard to follow at > first. > Go to the setup and programing section and start at the beginning, then go > step by step. > > To give you the answer; > via kermit or hypertem (what ever your using), > -Stop the boot process, this means either restart or start the unit after > plugging into the console and connecting > -type:# printenv > This will show you what the current configuration is. > -type:# setenv defaultdisplay lcd35 > This tells the COM that your using the lcd, and sets the resolution > accordingly. > -type:# saveenv > This saves it and makes it persistent. > -type:# boot > This continues the boot process.

I just tried something that did make a difference that I read on another post. I used "setenv dvimode 480x272MR-16@60" and it displays a small part of the boot image and terminal, but I don't think that resolution is right since it was for the palo43. What is the correct resolution for the palo35? -Andrew darthtux wrote: > > Ok, thanks for the replies. I guess I could have been more descriptive in > the subject, sorry.

The resolution for the LG 3.5" LCD display sold by Gumstix is 320x240, although I'm not sure if the dvimode setting matters when you specify lcd35 for defaultdisplay. In my case, I couldn't get the LCD to work with the Palo35 until I downloaded a new image and installed it on a microSD card.

Glad it works. Now, if mine did too it would be great. Last night it died after powering it up. I thought the power supply crapped out but got it replaced today and same thing. :( On 11/17/2009 3:50 PM, darthtux wrote: > Thankyou sooooo much for the help Edgardo.

Well, I must have some terrible luck. Everything was working great, I had it up and running and went downstairs for about an hour. Left it running upstairs. When I came back up, I had nothing but a black screen and it wouldn't respond. So then I hit the reset button. The LEDs show that it reset, but no video. So I unplug it, wait a minute, and plug it back in. Still no video. I think I am cursed. Any idea what might have caused this issue? -Andrew Edgardo Cruz wrote: > > Glad it works.

Ok, I figured out what happened. The power plug on the Palo35 just literaly broke off of the board :,(. I just ordered another with overnight shipping.

Well, I got the new Palo35 board in, and there is still not video. I will have to wait till I get home to see if I can connect to it through the console. If that works, then I guess the screen is messed up. Any ideas on what would cause the screen to go out like that? -Andrew darthtux wrote: > > Ok, I figured out what happened.

Got the new board in. still no video. It looks like the Backlight is out in my screen. Is there any command before boot that can turn it back on? I can just barely make out the image of everything as it boots. If not, then I guess this is a hardware issue. darthtux wrote: > > Ok, I figured out what happened.

Ok, so it looks like the Backlight is out in my screen. Is there any command before boot that can turn it back on. I can just barely make out the image everything as it boots.
