No, the reTerminal E10-1 expansion is not in use, we do not plan to use it.
– /boot/config.txt line disabled, rebooted.
also commented reTerminal to check i2c. …

Attempting to set the STM32 device into boot mode … nothing …
sv@raspberrypi:~ $ sudo i2ctransfer -y 1 w2@0x45 0x9b 0x01
Error: Sending messages failed: Remote I/O error
However, confirmed that we probably don;t need to update the STM32 based on this mapping , showing what I believe is the latest firmware , according to the guide:
sv@raspberrypi:~ $ i2cdetect -y 1

Have now uncommented :
dtoverlay=reTerminal,tp_rotate=1
and restarted. still no screen turning on.
