      Re: LCD tft screen 3.2" waveshare

      i follow till this steps and have no single clue on how to continue on

      Get or compile the right binary from https://github.com/ian57/rpi-fbcp according to your Pi version. Copy it in the /usr/bin directory. You'll need to get write access on the system for that :

      mount -o remount, rw /boot
      mount -o remount, rw /
      After getting the binary, verify the file has the executable right. In doubt just run :

      chmod 755 fbcp

      when ever i try to run chmod 755 fbcp, putty told me no such file. Where did i went wrong?

      Any gurus care to help this noob here? Thanks alot!

          i'm just a very lost noob, i copy paste the cmd, it show no such file/dir, so i use winSCP to place the fbcp into /boot folder and exclude the cmd again and i don't see any changes to my tft screen.

                  you need to get the dtbo file, take a look a the page https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/Utility---Use-of-fbcp-for-small-TFT-screen-%28EN%29 and https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/TFT-Screen-SPI-Bus-(EN) if you do not use the 4.1 release
