Getting the Raspberry Pi Official Touchscreen to work with RaspiOS Bookworm

Peter Mount’s Blog determines that, for now at least, you cannot use Wayland with the Official touch screen.

There’s quite a few changes to (Raspberry Pi OS), mainly the use of Wayland as the main window manager & back-end rather than the venerable X11 which we have used for decades in the *nix world.

When the Pi booted bookworm for the first time all looked well. The display worked fine and it entered the initial configuration fine – except there was no touch. I had to attach a mouse to it so I could complete the process.

See the details in the post here. Likely there will be an official fix for Wayland at some point.
