Linux/AM5728: Error / warning during boot vs not working LCD

Part Number: AM5728
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM5718,

Tool/software: Linux

Hello,

Recently we've connected LCD to our TMDXIDK5728 board unfortunatelly without any result. LCD is still blank. Soard itself is starting and working properly.
I've went through few threads about similar problems but nothing resolved my issue. 

During boot of myboard with linux onboard I can see some erros and warnings like :

Trying to boot from MMC1
no pinctrl state for default mode
no pinctrl state for default mode
*** Warning - bad CRC, using default environment

GUID Partition Table Header signature is wrong: 0x0 != 0x5452415020494645
part_get_info_efi: *** ERROR: Invalid GPT ***
GUID Partition Table Header signature is wrong: 0x0 != 0x5452415020494645
part_get_info_efi: *** ERROR: Invalid Backup GPT ***

** Unable to read file boot.scr **

 

I'll add that same system is working on second board with LCD. In Weston logs I can see:

[14:52:03.181] warning: no input devices on entering Weston. Possible causes:
- no permissions to read /dev/input/event*
- seats misconfigured (Weston backend option 'seat', udev device property ID_SEAT)
[14:52:03.181] failed to create input devices
[14:52:03.303] fatal: failed to create compositor backend

I would like to know if those errors might cause LCD mafunction and if I sould be worried about them at all.

Regards,

Jacek



 

  • Hello,

    Please try to connect a mouse or you could add require-input=false option to [core] section in /etc/weston.ini file.
    You could check this link for more information:
    manpages.ubuntu.com/.../weston.ini.5.html

    Hope this helps.

  • Hello Margarita,

    You were right, I forgot about Weston configuration, unfortunatelly my LCD is still black after modifying ini file.

    Weston looks quite ok now:

    [14:52:03.065] warning: no input devices found, but none required as per configuration.
    [14:52:03.065] No currently active connector found.

    Thanks for checking those errors, it looks like issue with my LCD.

    Thanks,
