Hyperpixel2r and Pi 5

Is there a way to get the Hyperpixel2r (round screen) to work with a Pi 5? There doesn’t seem to be any documentation on how to get this working.

I’ve added the dtoverlay line to the config.txt, and the screen is detected, but it’s just blank.

Any help would be great!

There’s some instructions on the shop page - HyperPixel 2.1 Round - Hi-Res Display for Raspberry Pi

Are you using the specific dtoverlay for Round?:

dtoverlay=vc4-kms-dpi-hyperpixel2r

Yes. From the base Raspian install using the Raspberry Pi Imager (I think the version is Bookworm), once booted, I update the system with raspi-config, then I set the dtoverlay parameters in the /boot/firmware/config.txt (based on the instructions from that website).

Once I reboot, The screen shows up on the display options, but there is nothing on the screen.

The backlight is lit up, but that is it. If I move my mouse to where the screen would be, the mouse will travel there, but does not show up on the screen.

I’d say that maybe the unit is bad, but I have 6 units, all are doing the same thing.

Have you got I2C disabled?
