Hello,

Cool it with the arrogant and incorrect answers please!!!
so what? have you read the documentation as well https://www.raspberrypi.com/documentati ... lay-2.html
yes I have and the solution noted in the documentation does not work
To set the screen orientation on a device that lacks a desktop environment, edit the /boot/firmware/cmdline.txt configuration file to pass an orientation to the system. Add the following entry to the end of cmdline.txt:

Code:

video=DSI-1:720x1280@60,rotate=<rotation-value>
What you suggest below is incorrect as I have a Pi3 B+ (as mentioned in the post). Adding this line does nothing.

Code:

dtoverlay=vc4-kms-dsi-ili9881-7inch,rotation=90
The dtoverlay needed for the pi3 is

Code:

dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d,
In fact doing what you say will result in the display just going blank.

why have you posted a link to a forum discussion on accelerometers? wlr-randr I have tried but it does not persist following a reboot.
which OS are you using? Only Bookwork has the drivers needed for V2 7in display.
I've not told you to add or remove 'dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d' as this is mandatory for KMS.

If you're on Pi3B+ then it's - according to the sources - https://github.com/raspberrypi/linux/bl ... 1-L5612C67

Code:

dtoverlay=vc4-kms-dsi-ili9881-7inch,rotation=90
as ion Pi3B+ only DSI-1 is available.
BUT you should not need to do anything as

Code:

display_auto_detect=1
will detect and enable the V2 display on any Pi (apart from Compute Modules).


If you think I'm incorrect fine for me! Good luck getting the display up&running.
