32-bit ST7789 1.3" 240x240 Partial Screen on boot

[mikeysklar]

Script Command

sudo -E env PATH=$PATH python3 adafruit-pitft.py --display=st7789v_bonnet_240x240 --rotation=0 --install-type=console

Operating System

Pi OS Bookworm, Lite, 32-bit

Hardware

Pi Zero W

Behavior

The Adafruit 1.3" 240x240 Color TFT+Joystick Bonnet boots up without showing the init scripts and the initial login shell is missing 20% of the right side of the screen.

Description

The adafruit-pitft.py installer works well in getting a usable screen and subsequent commands run after boot are full screen. Is there a way to get the startup init script output and correct screen size draw on boot?

Additional information

Using the same bonnet with a 64-bit install on a Pi 4 or Pi Zero 2W works well. Init scripts are shown and screen boot is correct resolution. The problem is tied to 32-bit Pi OS releases both Bookworm and Bullseye show the same behavior.

Forum issue for reference.

I noticed this

sudo dmesg | grep -i fb
[    2.641552] simple-framebuffer 1eaf0000.framebuffer: fb0: simplefb registered!
[   41.538857] panel-mipi-dbi-spi spi0.0: [drm] fb0: panel-mipi-dbid frame buffer device

which makes it look like it's loading the driver really late in the boot process
