Hi,
I'm trying to build a small GUI on the Armadillo without X11, using Pygame instead.
I've written a few working demos on the Armadillo-70T, but when migrating over to a 43T today I came across a strange problem.
I'm using image "Armadillo-43T_armadillian-jessie_R_1_4.zip", hand-installed the firmware required for my USB-WLAN stick (are there any WLAN sticks recommended that work out of the box?) and did a apt-get update/upgrade/dist-upgrade. Then I installed python3-pygame and my demos.
When launching the demos, only about 1/4th of the screen is used, there is a large black border around that I cannot seem to get rid off, my Pygame application uses only the center quarter (or so). I start pygame in the FULLSCREEN mode, so it should grab the whole screen. I get the same effect with our without X11 running. Strangely, the X11 server does not have this problenm, it fills the entire screen.
What could be the reason for this diverging behaviour on the 70T and the 43T?
Please see attached a minimal example, it should run on both 70T (ok) and 43T (buggy) after installing package python3-pygame.
Thanks,
Christian
