Collection of usbconfig dumps and info

I bought the following device [1] (without the bicolor case) for my raspber=
ry
pi 0.=20
The device can be used on any computer with an HDMI interface and acts as a
small secondary monitor. I wanted to use it on my RPI-0, but I encountered =
the
following problems:

- When I boot the system, it tries to sync to the proper resolution, result=
ing
in horizontal lines being printed. No text is visible. This continues even
after the RPI-0 has finished booting. When I switch to another monitor and
back, the Waveshare display displays the login screen as usual. However, the
bottom part is cut off. When rebooting with the Waveshare connected, it tri=
es
to detect the resolution again without success (horizontal lines again).
It seems to not get the proper screen resolution and even when I hook up
another monitor, switch back to the waveshare, and login, it is missing par=
ts
of the right side of the screen and the bottom parts (for example, I can't =
see
the end of a man page).=20

The manufacturer provides these instructions for Raspbian (config.txt):
max_usb_current=3D1
hdmi_group=3D2
hdmi_mode=3D1
hdmi_mode=3D87
hdmi_cvt 1024 600 60 6 0 0 0

I tried setting the 1024x600 resolution in rc.conf for vt, but it had no
effect.

I saw the 5'' model from the same manufacturer work correctly with FreeBSD,=
 so
I assume the 7'' model needs just a few adjustments. The output of usbconfi=
g is
attached.=20

Let me know if you need more information. I can test patches and provide
feedback.

Thank you!=20
