Touch screen update fail

Touch screen update fail

For some reason I can get through the Pi OS install, but when I try to install the firmware to make my 3.5 inch touch screen work it just reboots and gives me this screen.

I used the recommended 64 bit, and ive redone it with the 32bit as well.

Not super sure what I'm doing wrong here.

Extremely Beginner: Opening application on boot?

Hi all - I'm extremely green to this, and have gotten farther on my own than I thought I would (which is admittedly not very far), but I'm stuck on something that feels like it should be simple, but I can't get past.

I'm running a Raspberry Pi 4 on Debian Raspberry Pi OS with the desktop, and I have FocusWriter installed. My goal right now is to have FocusWriter open when the system boots.

I feel like in all the tutorials I'm reading, that there's a step somewhere I must be missing. I've been trying to troubleshoot it on my own but I have already borked my bash process once (which I figured how to fix) so I'm here asking for some help. The more ELI5 the better.

My eventual goal is to walk away with what is functionally a writerdeck, and while I know there is a writerdeck OS that I can use, I really want to try to make it function this way if I can.
