To display a web page in full screen when starting up an Orange Pi, it is possible to launch the Chromium browser in kiosk mode. In kiosk mode, it is only possible to run a single application (here the web browser) in full screen without access to other applications and menus.
Create a script that will launch the Chromium browser in Kiosk mode.
ex: nano startup.sh
!/bin/sh chromium --no-first-run --disable --disable-translate --disable-infobars --disable-suggestions-service --disable-save-password-bubble --start-maximized --kiosk --disable-session-crashed-bubble --incognito http://127.0.0.1/MyPage.html
You must now run the script in the XFCE graphical environment. Select in the menu Settings >> Session and Startup. Add the script to the list of applications to launch on startup.
In the command line put “sh” followed by the absolute path to the startup.sh script.
Use your application under ssh to cancel launching Chromium in the script if necessary because you no longer have access to classic graphics mode.
180 ° Touch Screen Rotation
In my case for ease of wiring, I had to turn the touchscreen 180 °. This is easy for viewing and moving the mouse. Go to settings / Display and invert the screen. For the detection of clicks on the touch sensor it is more complicated.
Go to the folder: usr / share / X11 / xorg.conf.d /
Open the file … -evdev.conf
In the area dealing with the touch screen, add the 2 options in red:
Section "InputClass"
Identifier "evdev touchscreen catchall"
MatchIsTouchscreen "on"
MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
Driver "evdev"
Option "InvertY" "true"
Option "InvertX" "true"
EndSection
