== Notes and version constraints ==
* The exact hdmi_cvt line depends on firmware version; verify that the parameters match your Pi firmware before saving.
* Testing hardware modifications (e.g., brightness adjustment via the resistor) risks damaging the LCD; do not attempt without experience.
* If the screen stays blank during calibration under Windows, press Enter to switch input to the touchscreen.
* For thin red lines at the screen edge: add hdmi_drive=1 to config.txt.
* The long-press emulation (evdev-rce) requires a specific test environment (raspios-bullseye-armhf 32-bit); compatibility with newer systems must be checked individually.
