tomsupergreem, if I understand correctly most of these controller boards have a voltage converter circuit, which takes an input current > 5V (for example 12V) and outputs 5V. So "converting" the LCD to 5V requires bypassing this DC to DC circuit by feeding your 5V power source directly to its output...

n.marek, the result is the same after rebooting the Pi. Here is a picture of my setup:



Could it be a software issue where a driver needs to be configured in raspbian? I have ssh access to the Pi over USB

Hi, Have you guys heard about this neat project: a sweedish modder named Anders Granlund recently created clone of Wolf3d running full speed on a GBC, contained inside an original gb cardridge. On the software side I think it's not even a port, but was inplemented from scratch and powered by a corte...

Hi, I'm completely new to electronics and would need some help in getting my LCD to work. Unluckily, like majestic, tomsupergreen and some others I ended up with a PCB too big to fit inside a GB shell out of the box. Anyway went ahead with these steps: 1 - unsolder display controller's XL1509-5.0e1 ...
