Hi all,
First thanks to Robert and other contributors for having put dts files for the capes in the kernel tree.
I've been away from BBB those last weeks because of work, and back on it after having played a bit with Qt5, opengl, pruss and ldc4 cape...
I found out my fingers are way too big for the 4.3 screen, in fact I have too many buttons and text for my application.
So I bought a 4D LCD7 cape, pulled the new kernel 3.15 and built it.
I disabled HDMI, added the include for the cape, tried to boot and nothing on screen.
Backlight is on, screen initialize but on the console I have:
tilcdc 4830e000.fb: timeout waiting for framedone.
LCD4 from circuitco is fine with kernel built the same way, and LCD7 is working fine under 3.8.13 base image on emmc.
I did not had time to investigate any further because it was almost time to get the kids at school, but I'll check more in depth tomorrow.
But if anyone went across this kind of trouble and fixed it, would be glad to hear what has been done.
Regards,
Cedric
Which version of the lcd7 is it?
on v3.8.x
dmesg | grep cape
will tell us everything. (revision etc..)

I checked this morning and it’s A3

but everything is working fine.
Ah, the 4dcape-70t, (i grabbed the wrong lcd this morning..)
So this one was a little fun to get working, i don't remember if i
pushed all the fixes to v3.15.x
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install linux-image-3.14.17-ti-r19
sudo cp -v /boot/dtbs/3.14.17-ti-r19/am335x-boneblack.dtb
/boot/dtbs/3.14.17-ti-r19/am335x-boneblack.bak
sudo cp -v /boot/dtbs/3.14.17-ti-r19/am335x-boneblack-4dcape-70t.dtb
/boot/dtbs/3.14.17-ti-r19/am335x-boneblack.dtb
sudo reboot
Regards,
I will try, but I’m checking diffs between 3.8.13 dts and 3.15.10, because using dtb from 3.14 is not really a solution for me as I also need pruss.
Well I think 
Thanks

Ok, so LCD7 is working now.
What I did:

Looks like the lcd.data1 which is used on 7" screens is not the same as on 4" ones.
As for Pruss, in 3.15 bone 6 I patched uio_pruss.c driver, and enabled it in dts / Kernel config.
Will check for your remoteproc driver.
Thanks

Put it back to 0xa4
tft-alt-mode = <0>;

Nope but were in 3.8.13…
Another trouble is with keymap now.
If I enable keymap for the user buttons ( even if I do not need them for now ) , the touchscreen is clicking by itself when I do a ts_calibrate.
Going to investigate

Cool! i'll enable that by default...

Make sure they are -1 compared with v3.8.13

About Touchscreen …
forget all I said
My very own fault, I had leftover TS things in /etc/profile pointing to /dev/input/event1 instead of /dev/input/event2
So back to my sandbox for a bit more games
