Nextion Display is working when I did the command in ssh - Pi-star

Unit NextionDriver.service could not be found.
Sorry, my error: should have been lowercase:

Code: Select all

sudo systemctl status nextiondriver.service
pi-star@pi-star(ro):~$ ls -la /dev/ttyAM*
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 204, 64 Apr 5 08:46 /dev/ttyAMA0
crw-rw---- 1 root dialout 204, 74 Apr 4 17:17 /dev/ttyAMA10

Code: Select all

$: ls -la /dev/ttyN*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 10 Apr  4 05:37 /dev/ttyNextionDriver -> /dev/pts/1
Check your configuration and make sure you've selected the correct device. For a Nextion display, it should be: /dev/ttyNextionDriver

Hi Andy,

It has been a while since the 4.3.0 beta was released. There was mention of a 5.0 release. Do you have a guesstimate of the ETA of the next update?

BTW, I am using 4.3.0 with a pi 5 and I am very happy with how the pi 5's speed enhances the response of the dashboard and BM static TG settings.

I think that 5.0 is the one which will have the dashboard rewritten, so that's quite likely to be some way off.

5.0 is still some ways off yet. There is no schedule to its release.

there all several weeks no updates for 4.30. When comes the final release? 4.30 works now fine on my raspberry pi 5.

I just can't get 4.3.0 to work; the DMR flags on the left remain in RED. I have it working in 4.1.8, 4.2.1.

Sure would like to know what you did to get it running in YSF. That is the mode I want to use, YSF2DMR later,

I am using a pi Zero W 2, and can not to get it to work all the way. Using Pi-star_RPi_V4.3.0_10-Feb-2024.

I can find the dashboard on an ip address, did the configuration there, as well as an update under the expert link with ssh.

New Sandisk micro SD card, 128 GB. Burned with Balena etcher after formatting with SD Card Formatter,

Stumped.
