3.5 inch Monitor drivers

Hello,

I bought a case that has a 3.5 inch monitor for my RP 4. (This one) I was planning on doing a straight Raspberry PI OS and then run bitcoind and have that be my interface. But, then I came across umbrel. It’s such a cool project I just had to use this program.

However, now I have my monitor attached to the pins on the board and I I can’t seem to figure out if it’s possible to install drivers for it.

This was essentially the commands to do it:

sudo rm -rf LCD-show
git clone https://github.com/goodtft/LCD-show.git
chmod -R 755 LCD-show
cd LCD-show/
sudo ./MHS35-show

The drivers say it’s compatible with the following systems:
Raspberry
Ubuntu Mate
Kali
Retropie system

But I’ve yet to even find terminal access in Umbrel (if there is access) to see if I can get any to work.

Does anyone think I have a shot at making this work with Umbrel?

Thanks…Jimmy

Sounds great. Thanks. I’ll just unplug the monitor for now to reduce heat and power.

I’ll keep an eye out for the app.
