Raspberry Pi 4 Compute Module does not show output with HDMI display


I use Raspberry Pi 4 CM in bound with CM4-to-Pi4-Adapter. I've flashed a custom Yocto-image in that, using rpiBoot and RPi Imager for. Now I'm trying check my Raspberry's features, but when I try to connect it to Waveshark HDMI LCD (H) display (1024 X 600) there is nothing. The display once it powered on ligths grey then shows a some weird screen for a half of the second and finally stays black. The green light on the board glows brightly at the same time, but at some point it blinks very quickly and dims. I can see faint periodic blinks, like a pulsation, but I find it difficult to say which ones, short or long, as in the documentation.

I don't literally have any idea where should I find an error. The Yocto image I use just simple core-image-minimal with ssh and some Qt and GPIO's libraries included. The flashing was succesful as Imager says.

The screen output, sorry for blurry and overexposed photo

I've searched a lot of forums with same problems and done some steps from, like change a config.txt file, especially hdmi fields, but with some values of them I don't see even the screen I've uploaded.


Solution

  • The answer was hidden at https://www.waveshare.com/wiki/7inch_HDMI_LCD_(H)_(with_case)

    Just add this at the end of the config.txt:

    config_hdmi_boost=10
    hdmi_group=2 
    hdmi_mode=87 
    hdmi_cvt 1024 600 60 6 0 0 0
    

    And change in # Enable VC4 Graphics:

    dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d to dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d
