Pi 4 with Pi Touch Display was created by KenSea
I was typing up a post to ask for help getting LinuxCNC 2.9.2 running on a Raspberry Pi 4 B attached to a Raspberry Pi 7 inch Touch Display, when I finally figured out the solution. Thought I'd still make the post for helping others or possibly even future me if I have to rebuild this system one day.

The Pi Touch uses DSI for connecting to a Raspberry Pi and seems LinuxCNC doesn't have the required settings enabled in the config.txt by default. Not really a surprise as its probably an unusual pairing of hardware and OS.

The solution was adding the below text to config.txt

dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d
#DSI1 Use
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-dsi-7inch
# Automatically load overlays for detected DSI displays
display_auto_detect=1

Hello, I've the same issue on Rpi5 but your solution do not work completely.

I've on the boot the DSI display working well but after starting, Linuxcnc switch to the HDMI and I do not find anything in the configuration to display on the DSI and on the HDMI.

Do I've miss something ?
