I am facing an issue when trying to use my oled screen as a standard and simple linux framebuffer. I followed these instructions for the wiring https://learn.adafruit.com/ssd1306-oled-displays-with-raspberry-pi-and-beaglebone-black/wiring
And try to load the driver with
modprobe fbtft_device name=adafruit13m debug=1 gpios=reset:24,dc:23
The driver seems to load correctly.
However, I can't get to show an image on it with fbi:
fbi -d /dev/fb1 -a happycat_oled_64.ppm
using "DejaVu Sans Mono-16", pixelsize=16,67 file=/usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuSansMono.ttf
ioctl VT_GETSTATE: Ioctl() inappropré pour un périphérique (not a linux console?)
I found a discussion on github about a problem that may be related: https://github.com/notro/fbtft/issues/169
Has someone managed to get this little screen working as a framebuffer, and would share some details? Do you know another way to test the framebuffer?
As a side note, the adafruit tutorial provides several python examples that uses a userspace driver, and I managed to show an image using them.
