no hdmi output


  • I recently purchased and set up your naspi system. I had everything up and running great.  Im booting from the ssd but i also keep an sd card in it with the full desktop version of raspberry OS and use it when i go camping. I forgot the password for the desktop version so started googling how to reset it. I found that you can reset the password if you go into the cmdline.txt and add:

    init=/bin/sh

    Unfortunatley i didn't notice that i added ' to the text. so I ended up entering 'init=/bin/sh to the cmdline.txt. Now the hdmi ports dont want to work. Im new to the pi so I am looking for any help. The rest of the system seems to be operating as normal.  

     

    Thank you in advance for any help.



  • Hi,friend

    Please re-burn the firmware.


  • Forgive me for this may be a dumd question but do i need to reburn the firmware to the X-C1  or the raspberry pi itself? Also what is the best way to go about re-burnning the firmware?


  • Thsi wound up being the solution for me. 

    Code: Select all

    sudo nano /boot/config.txt
    

    find:
    dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d
    add/change to:
    dtoverlay=vc4-fkms-v3d

    by adding an f, this will change the driver to the old version used in buster.
    reboot after making changes and saving.
