I’m trying to connect a 0.91" OLED display to my Raspberry Pi via I2C to show basic system stats (like Raspberry Pi and Home Assistant information). I’ve already installed the HassOS I2C Configurator, and I’ve confirmed that /dev/i2c-1 is available. However, I haven’t been able to find a way to actually send data to the display, since tools like i2cdetect aren’t available in the Home Assistant OS environment.

Has anyone successfully connected an I2C OLED display to a Raspberry Pi running Home Assistant OS, and if so, how did you manage it? Any advice or workarounds would be greatly appreciated!

HAOS isn't designed or intended for that kind of usage

#

You're better off using a separate device with your screen to monitor the HA server

You cannot customize what's installed in HAOS
