I've found out that pygame doesn't support any bit depth less than 8.

Could someone with a 4-bit Wifi try these commands after a fresh reboot and post the output?

Code:

[root@(none) /]# cat /dev/urandom > /dev/fb0 
cat: write error: No such device
[root@(none) /]# echo 1 > /sys/class/graphics/fb0/rotate 
[root@(none) /]# cat /dev/urandom > /dev/fb0 
cat: write error: No space left on device

And then try updating the e-ink display, either with /mnt/onboard/.python/eink_update.sh, or with:

Code:

cat /dev/fb0 > /tmp/fb
cat /tmp/fb | /usr/local/Kobo/pickel showpic

After these commands, is your Wifi's screen filled with random noise?
