Solved: Local UI display with 3.5 inch TFT
#2
I don't have attached a local display that could emulate the desktop like yours or the standard 7" display. I assume you will need to setup the display as a standard desktop display, where a browser opens full screen with the URL to localhost . Then you could use that as a local display.

The setup for the 7" starts the xinit and then a cromium Browser under the user pi ( at least that is what could read out of the source and trailing down local-ui.service etc.
So maybe that helps as a starting point to adapt and you should look to get a xinit/xstart up and runing on your system with your /dev/fb1
You will not need pydPiper as this is for Non-graphical displays where you can't start a browser.

BTW: Have you attached fbcon=... to the END of the cmdline in cmdline.txt ? And have you created /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-calibration.conf ( including content like the manual is stating )?
