Elecrow 5 inch Capacitive Touch Screen for Raspberry Pi. Compatable?

Aperturelab

Hey all.

Does anyone know if this screen works, with specific configuration? ive been having a lot of issues trying to trouble shoot. whats worse is it rarely does boot up, but no touch function. 90% of boots have it flicker then No Signal. Thanks~

Maybe a more powerful power supply? Did the screen come with an IMG of raspbian specifically for this screen, maybe checkout the config.txt that's in there?

ive changed the config.txt to the recommended changes, and nothing. my screen has its own 5v2a output. it did come with images on a disk, but they're all reading as corrupt. found some drivers online, through their wiki. but they didn't make a difference

If touch doesn't work, you need to find out which driver/module is missing. You can find many standard modules in /boot/modules.

Im sorry, my knowledge of what i need and what im looking for, inside the modules folder, is very limited. is there a wiki or info page i could read about these modules?

Hi buddy, try changing the power supply and that might solve your issue/problem.
