Using RP2040 and qwiic_serlcd.py - no success

Development Boards Raspberry Pi
1

I have had good success using the RP2040 with the OLED boards, but not with the SerLCD 16396/397 displays. I’m trying to get the example file ex1_qwiic_serlcd_hello_world.py working with my RP2040 through the qwiic connector. I think the problem is what package do I search for and install using PyPI?

Are you using qwiic for both types of screens?

Be sure you have the qwiic package loaded/installed sparkfun-qwiic · PyPI

I am using the qwiic_i2c library with the Pro Micro RP2040 running the ssd1306 OLED.

I downloaded the sparkfun_qwiic-2.0.0.tar.gz file, then tried to install it via “Manage packages”, getting an error message using the RP2040 and the LCD.
