Hyperpixel Square and HQ Camera Issue (Using the Overlay)

Hi all.

I’ve just installed a new Raspian OS version and followed the instructions from Github to use the HyperPixel Square overlay and libcamera-hello doesn’t detect the HQ camera.
Here’s the output from libcamera-hello:

pi@raspberrypi:~ $ libcamera-hello
Made DRM preview window
[0:11:07.635393637] [907]  INFO Camera camera_manager.cpp:299 libcamera v0.0.4+22-923f5d70
ERROR: *** no cameras available ***

To use the overlay I added the following line to /boot/config.txt

[all]
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-dpi-hyperpixel4sq

I’ve already tried the solution from this closed issue, but no luck.
Now my config is like (fresh install, no other changes):

[all]
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-dpi-hyperpixel4sq
disable_poe_fan=1
force_eeprom_read=0
camera_auto_detect=0

I’ve also opened an issue on GitHub.

Thank you

So, no one from Pimononi has a clue what’s happening ? … I can’t use the HyperPixel with the HQ camera ? Or any other camera ?

I’ve solved my issue by adding the camera overlay (along with the other lines) to /boot/config.txt

dtoverlay=vc4-kms-dpi-hyperpixel4sq
disable_poe_fan=1
force_eeprom_read=0
camera_auto_detect=0
dtoverlay=imx477

And the camera now works with the HyperPixel Square.
