Well I stand completely and utterly corrected. Thank you for the clarification, Sorgelig, and for all of the hard work.

Ricardo, you have my apologies.

So no, I think it's completely valid to criticize a company profiting off of the free work of others without crediting them or in any way informing consumers of their work. And I think it's completely valid that you take some time to actually come to understand the community you've entered before committing libel and slander. Had you done so, you ...

I'm not confused. And I don't appreciate your false accusations. I did not "outright accuse him of fraud". I wrote that he probably includes the MT32 ROMs with his SD card. I was wrong, and I corrected myself. Further, I criticized him for profiting off open source work of other people without giving due credit . I will ask again where he...

Wow, someone criticizes your business and you immediately call for them to reported and moderated. You're a cool guy, Ricardo. It's a fact that you profit off of the work open source projects. Nowhere on your site do I see a link let alone mention of the fact you are selling open source hardware designs made available to everyone via an official Mi...

Awesome! Glad it's working.

I think you can also conclude that you have an issue different from the jumper pins, as the MT32-pi should boot successfully even when disconnected from the MiSTer. That means the OLED should turn on and show you the boot screen, etc.

Well, I stand corrected then regarding the rom files. If you've updated the firmware files (meaning overwritten the originals) and used a jumper on the user port pins, I'm not sure what's up. I would recommend installing the official raspberry pi OS onto a separate SD card and see if it boots. Doing that successfully signaled for me that the issue ...

Newer 3A+ Pis (like within the last year) require different firmware files on the SD card to work. This is due to a hardware revision that changed one of the power management chips. This has not been corrected in the official MT32-pi repository. The fix is dead simple, though. You just overwrite a few files on your SD card. See the link I posted ea...

Probably the same issue I had. Look here:

BigDanG, thank you x100! I was tearing my hair out trying to understand what was going wrong. I recently bought a new Pi 3 A+ and was experiencing the same or similar issue - no OLED screen, no response from USB MIDI input. The LED lights would turn on, and I saw activity on green but it looked like random read activity to me, so I ignored it (perh...
