Re: Nextion Display does not work in PiStar 4.1.4

Never mind I found the problem.

The port change between versions. Set it to modem and it works now.

I wonder why that changed between versions? However the answer is not all that important. it is working.

Its frustrating trying to find what the update chaged.

Install some SD card copier software like https://www.balena.io/etcher/ and download the linux version (not windows) for your platform 64 or 32 bit.
