I installed this: (note, this is all I installed, I used my original updated stretch image, not a custom image from 4d)
$ wget http://www.4dsystems.com.au/download...35_v1.0.tar.gz
$ sudo tar -xzvf 4d-hats_4-9-35_v1.0.tar.gz -C /
to my pi zero running stretch and followed the instructions to get it going however I am having an issue with applications being way oversized. It appears like the screen is only showing the upper left hand corner (about 25%) of a much larger screen. I did change the menu to small icons so now all of the icons show on the screen but if I open an application, the window is so big I can only see 25% of the application and in some cases cannot scroll over to close the window.
What am I doing wrong ?

thank you for providing the sources. I successfully compiled my own kernel 4.9.76-v7+ (based on commit https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux...abbc9bd5adaed6). I had to copy the device tree compile script dtc.sh and the device tree overlay source 35-hat.dts from https://bitbucket.org/4DPi/4d-hats/src.
Kind regards
Peter

Yes, that worked for me too, in non-pwm mode. However in pwm mode the screen is blank (the touchscreen works after the usual downgrade to SDL wheezy). The brightness control doesn't accept any values beyond 31, but none of these commands bring the display to life. Any guidance?

Found a mistake in /boot/config.txt:
# uncomment one of the ovrelays if loading from EEPROM is not supported
#dtoverlay=4dpi-32
#dtoverlay=4dpi-35
#dtoverlay=24-hat
#dtoverlay=32-hat
#dtoverlay=35-hat
#dtoverlay=35b-hat
#dtoverlay=4dpi-43
dtoverlay=4dpi-43ct
#dtoverlay=4dpi-50
#dtoverlay=4dpi-50ct
#dtoverlay=4dpi-70
#dtoverlay=4dpi-70ct
dtoverlay=4dpi-43ct should be commented out. It worked for me when after commenting it out;
#dtoverlay=4dpi-43ct

With 4-9-35 after powering up the backlight comes on but the screen stays dark until the console messages start showing at the very end of the startup process.
With 4-9-59 the backlight comes on, the screen goes white, and after a while both backlight and screen seemingly turn off. No console messages at any time. I haven't tried anything pygame after that.

4-9-59 should work with latest Raspbian Stretch. What kind of problems are you experiencing?

4-9-59 does not work with Raspbian Stretch. 4-9-35 works, but only in non-pwm switch setting. The command is also different from the datasheet
sudo bash -c "echo 1 > /sys/class/backlight/4d-hats/brightness"

Dear James,
thank you for your quick reply. Unfortunately access to your new bitbucket repository is restricted. My username on bitbucket is PPDMDE in case you can give me access? Since my project uses further kernel modifications I can't simply make use of your current testing kernel pack.
Thank you
Peter

Hi Peter
There is a new repo which is being used, as we have new modules coming out in the new year. You can use this to generate source for the current modules though.
https://bitbucket.org/4DPi/gen4-hats
and here is the current built kernel pack which is available for public testing. This will be made official soon.
http://www.4dsystems.com.au/download...59_v1.1.tar.gz
I hope that helps
Regards

Dear pauleilio,
thank you for providing the tar. Do you plan on updating the sources at https://bitbucket.org/4DPi/4d-hats/ for compatibility with kernel 4.9.z so we can compile our own kernel? (ref. http://forum.4dsystems.com.au/forum/...anch-rpi-4-9-y)
Best regards
Peter

Yep, it worked once I moved the jumper. I used this 4DPi-24-HAT on a different RPi several years ago, and it worked fine with the jumper in the other position. I didn't notice it mentioned in the manual, guess I missed it.
Thanks,
Tom

Hello,
Welcome to the forum.
This should work with Stretch
On terminal:
$ wget http://www.4dsystems.com.au/download...35_v1.0.tar.gz
$ sudo tar -xzvf 4d-hats_4-9-35_v1.0.tar.gz -C /
Please make sure the jumper is set to the ON/OFF position
Best regards,
Paul
