apt-get upgrade - raspberrypi-bootloader breaks FBTFT #10
Comments
I had the same issue with the drivers missing after updating raspberrypi-bootloader. Is this the right place to report this or should it be reported to the raspbian maintainers? |
It's not a problem with raspbian per se. It becomes a problem for FBTFT, because raspberrypi-bootloader contains an updated kernel and modules. So the FBTFT enabled kernel gets overwritten and the drivers stop working. Well, when I'm writing this I realise that maybe I can mark the package when I'm making the image, and then it won't be an issue... |
Good question. |
hello, i did like notro description above. i did not loos the fbtft during 2 or three repeats of all. but i can not update my fpc or lazarus to any newer version. why ? thanks for good instructions |

thanks for the example, now, slowly but stable i get more and more know-how about dpkg and apt-get and so things. but how to install a lazarus Version > 1.0.xxx i dont know. if i do apt-get update and upgrade and after this apt-get install lazarus allways the thame answer like " 0 newer, nothing to do " (i'm not at home and so i can not look to the message) but thats not a raspberry- or fbtft-problem, i will goto the lazarus forum to get info about this :-) thanks a lot |
This does not apply any more now that the official kernel is used. |
When doing
apt-get upgrade
the FBTFT drivers disappearThis is the package that breaks FBTFT, because it contains a kernel which overwrites the FBTFT kernel and modules
Update packages except raspberrypi-bootloader
Update bootloader, but not the kernel and modules
