At system boot, [`fbtft_device`](./config/fbtft.conf) kernel module is loaded and it initializes the LCD as `/dev/fb0`. 2. `nodm` starts an X session and `~/.xinitrc` get executed. 3. `~/.xinitrc` launchs `matchbox-window-manager` and `~/macmini/switcher/*js`. 4. `~/macmini/switcher/index.js` reads the scripts [`~/macmini/switcher/sh.d/*sh`](./switcher/sh.d/) and spawns them one by one when there is a HTTP GET request at `localhost:5501/`. 5. `~/macmini/switcher/gpio-reader.js` watchs the push SW at GPIO7(PA06) and send a request to `localhost:5501/`. ### How does the low-res LCD(320x240) handle 512x384 resolution? Internally `tightvncserver` and `ssvncviewer` are used to scale the display. - e.g. [`1_large_minimac.sh`](./switcher/sh.d/1_large_minimac.sh) launches: - `tightvncserver` to create a virtual display (512x384) at `DISPLAY=:1` (`:5901`) - `minivmac` in `DISPLAY:1` - `ssvncviewer -scale 0.625` in `DISPLAY:0` (By the `-scale` option, low-res LED get upscaled) ## Gallery | | | | :-------------------------------------------------------------------------: | :-------------------------------------------------------------------------: | | | | | | | | | | ## BOM | Name | Quantity | Descriptions | | ------------------------------------------------------- | :------: | ----------------------- | | OrangePi Zero Plus 2 (H3) | 1 | H5 ver. might work too. | | 2.4inch SPI Display (ili9341, 320x240, with flat cable) | 1 | | | Generic micro-USB Breakout Board | 2 | | | M2 x 6 mm Self Tapping Screw | 16 | | | D10mm Rounding Magnet | 2 | | | 7x7 mm Push Switch | 1 | | | 2W Small Speaker | 1 | (Optional) | | ClassD Audio Amplifier Board | 1 | (Optional) PAM8403 | ## Acknowledgments - Mini vMac https://www.gryphel.com/c/minivmac/ - Basilisk II https://basilisk.cebix.net/ - Kudos to all the devs!
