Software Configuration

Method 1: Flash the Latest Official OS Image Using Raspberry Pi Imager

This method is applicable to Raspberry Pi OS, Ubuntu, Kali, Volumio, and RetroPie systems.

• 1. Connect the TF card to your PC. Download and use Raspberry Pi Imager to flash the corresponding operating system image.

• 2. After flashing the image, log in to the Raspberry Pi system through the user command line.

 Default username: pi
 Default password: raspberry

• Download the latest driver from GitHub. (The Raspberry Pi must be connected to the Internet.)
• Enter the following commands to install the driver:

sudo rm -rf DSI-1024×600
git clone https://github.com/goodtft/DSI-1024×600.git
chmod -R 755 DSI-1024×600
cd DSI-1024×600/
sudo ./DSI-1024×600-show

• The default driver uses I2C0.
• To use DSI0 + I2C1, execute the following command:

sudo ./DSI-1024×600-show i2c1 dsi0

Backlight Brightness Adjustment

• 1. Click the menu in the upper-left corner, navigate to Preferences → Control Center, and select Screens.
  

• 2. Navigate to "Screen" → "DSI-1" → "Brightness". Select the desired backlight brightness level, then click "Apply" to complete the configuration.

You can also use the graphical backlight adjustment tool provided by us. (This program is only compatible with Bookworm and Bullseye systems.)

Enter the following commands in the terminal to download, install, and use the tool:

wget http://www.lcdwiki.com/res/software/lcd-dsi-brightness-go.zip
unzip lcd-dsi-brightness-go.zip
chmod -R 755 lcd-dsi-brightness-go
cd lcd-dsi-brightness-go
sudo ./install.sh

After installation, you can launch the program from:

Start Menu → Accessories → Brightness

See the image below:

Alternatively, you can control the backlight brightness by entering the following command in the terminal:

echo X | sudo tee /sys/class/backlight/*/brightness

Here, X represents any value from 0 to 255.

• 0 indicates the lowest backlight brightness.
• 255 indicates the highest backlight brightness.

Examples:

echo 100 | sudo tee /sys/class/backlight/*/brightness
echo 0 | sudo tee /sys/class/backlight/*/brightness
echo 255 | sudo tee /sys/class/backlight/*/brightness

Display Rotation

Display Rotation on Bookworm

GUI Display Rotation

• 1. Open the "Screen Configuration" application.
  

• 2. Navigate to "Screen" → "DSI-1" → "Touchscreen", and select "10-0014 Goodix Capacitive TouchScreen".

• 3. Click "Apply" and close the current window. Follow the restart prompt to reboot the system. The touchscreen configuration will then be completed.

• 4. Navigate to "Screen" → "DSI-1" → "Orientation". Select the desired rotation direction and click "Apply" to synchronize the rotation of the display and touchscreen.

Note: The synchronized display and touchscreen rotation method described above is only supported on Bookworm. For Bullseye and Buster systems, the touchscreen rotation must be configured separately after rotating the display.

Touch Mode Selection

Trixie and Bookworm systems support two touchscreen modes, which can be switched in the Screen Configuration → Touchscreen menu:

• 1. Mouse Emulation (Default)

Single tap = Left mouse button function
Long press = Right mouse button function
Double-click supported
Page scrolling and multi-touch are not supported

Note: This mode is suitable for scenarios requiring mouse-like operation, such as double-clicking to open File Manager and long-pressing to perform right-click actions.

• 2. Multitouch

Supports multi-touch functionality
Supports page scrolling
Double-click and long-press right-click functions are not supported

Note: This mode is suitable for touch-optimized applications, such as web browsing and scrolling through lists.
