Description
Mount for the Adafruit Industries HDMI 5" 800x480 Display Backpack - With Touchscreen.
I got mine at Microcenter: https://www.microcenter.com/product/613550/adafruit-industries-hdmi-5-800x480-display-backpack-with-touchscreen
SKU was 006676, part number is 2260.
I use it for Klipperscreen.
BOM:
4x M3x6mm (maybe 8mm would be easier) bolts
1x M3x10mm bolt
5x M3 nuts
4x construction screws
To get this display working on my pi4 was a major pain. The guides online didn't work. The resolution was constantly completely wrong.
I installed KlipperScreen using kiauh, then:
I added these to /boot/config.txt:
hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=87
hdmi_cvt=800 480 60 6 0 0 0
hdmi_drive=1
max_usb_current=1
In /boot/config.txt, I changed this:
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d
to this:
dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d
I created the file /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/90-monitor.conf which contained the following:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "HDMI-1"
Modeline "800x480_60.00" 29.50 800 824 896 992 480 483 493 500 -hsync +vsync
# This identifier would be the same as the name of the connector printed by xrandr.
# it can be "HDMI-0" "DisplayPort-0", "DSI-0", "DVI-0", "DPI-0" etc
Option "Rotate" "normal"
# Valid rotation options are normal,inverted,left,right
Option "PreferredMode" "800x480_60.00"
# May be necesary if you are not getting your prefered resolution.
EndSection
After that, I rebooted, and it worked.
