From 4DPi to HDMI, and back!
If you've read with attention our previous post about setting up your 4DPi, you’ll notice that it’s not quite straightforward to get the image back to your monitor via the HDMI port.
Dry your tears and stop slamming your Pi out of frustration, as there is a quick solution, granted you know where to look for.
In your terminal window, enter either line of code, depending on what screen you would like to use:
startx -- -layout TFT # two single “-” between “starts” and “-layout TFT”
startx -- -layout HDMI # two single “-” between “starts” and “-layout TFT”
The screen change should automatically appear, throwing you an error message that you can ignore.
