The latest Armbian images now fully support the 7" pine64 touchscreen, including DT bindings.
When using Armbian with the screen, disregard the instruction on the Armbian Pine64 download page to enable the screen by setting
"pine64_lcd=on"
in /boot/armbianEnv.txt
Instead, use the hardware category in the armbian-config utility.
The module to load for the touchscreen is "goodix". Not "gt9xxf_ts" as instructen on the Armbian download page.
There is an issue with the goodix touchscreen when rebooting. The goodixi2c connection sometimes fails. The workaround for this for the moment is to shutdown and cold boot.
