    Hi Retropie forum.
    I recently bought a small SPI OLED from Adafruit, and i finally got it working with the fbcp driver! It displays Emulationstation perfect in fullscreen, but as soon as I go to the console or launch an emulator the x resolution crops to what seems half of normal(128×128)making the image very slim.
    Why does it do this? How can I make it stop?
    Any answer is very appreciated!

    if you exit out of emulationstation without launching any games, does it still do this ?

    Yes, it does that every where except emulationstation.

    if you disable emulationstation on bootup (via retropie-setup / supplementary menu), and boot into console, does the resolution look correct ?

    If not, you might want to try changing some config.txt related settings. Although I know little about this screen / hardware though and need to read up on it.

    I’m not home right now, but I’ll try to disable emulation station as you wrote when I get home :)

    Hi, sorry for not answering!
    So I got it to work perfectly by editing some config files, as you wrote!
    Thank you so much for your help!
