Hi, took delivery of the above yesterday but I cannot get it to work.
I started with the latest Raspbian Buster image on a Pi 3A+ and updated/upgraded it.
I then followed the instructions as per https://github.com/pimoroni/st7789-python - i.e.:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python-rpi.gpio python-spidev python-pip python-imaging python-numpyHowever, python-imaging failed but advised to install python-pil instead…
then did sudo pip install st7789, however, as I’m using Thonny based on Python 3 I also did sudo pip3 install st7789
I’d forgotten to enable spi and i2c so enabled them and rebooted.
I ran sudo Thonny and tried the various examples from the Github page, however, there’s no output from the display, save for the backlight being lit.
What am I missing…?
Cheers,
Andrew
