NO SIGNAL
Hi, I think I may have one of the original tinypilots - I bought it 2 years ago. It worked when I got it and it's been in storage since. Today I took it out to use it but I am getting "NO SIGNAL" on the UI, but the keyboard and mouse work https://i.imgur.com/aF7B9NS.png
Looking at /var/log/syslog it is spamming these messages

I have tried restarting TinyPilot multiple times. I also tried connecting it to another computer and get the same result.

Hi @k1337 - thanks for reaching out to us, I'm sorry to hear you're having video issues.
It's possible that the filesystem on the microSD card has corrupted if it's been left in storage for a while. This can normally be fixed by re-flashing the microSD card, but it looks like you're running a very old unsupported version of TinyPilot so I'd recommend installing the community version of TinyPilot instead.
It's also possible that the HDMI capture dongle might have failed. I appreciate it's a bit of a cliché, but if there is still no video after re-installation I'd recommend disconnecting and the re-connecting the capture dongle. I'm hopeful that this will be enough to get your TinyPilot device back up and running, but if not please let me know and we can explore other options.
