Last Resort to Make the Screen Work

If your screen never shows the console or bootup text during startup, it is typically due to an improperly installed screen. See Physical Install Issues for more information.

Boot Screen

If the screen shows the bootup text but ends with a blinking cursor or login prompt, and no matter what you tried in Troubleshooting you can't make it work, then follow these steps:

  1. Install a Distro with a Desktop Environment

  2. Ensure Proper Functionality
    Make sure the screen is working properly, including both display and touch functionality.

  3. Deactivate the Desktop Environment for KlipperScreen
    To allow KlipperScreen to run exclusively, enter the following command in a terminal and press enter:

    sudo systemctl set-default multi-user.target && sudo reboot
    

  4. Reboot and Install KlipperScreen
    Wait for the system to reboot and then proceed to install KlipperScreen.
