Hi.

The program raspi2raspi is intended to copy from one display to another. Both screens need to be using the GPU. At the moment this means that your second screen needs to be either the Official Raspberry Pi display OR using Gert Van Loo's VGA666 adapter (or equivalent).

What two screens do you have?

Hi @alefraser, the raspi2raspi program won't work with 3.5 inch display. You could probably get more help on the Raspberry Pi forum. There is a French forum as well if that is your native language - https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewforum.php?f=65

Also, you can try raspi2fb which will copy the Raspberry Pi main display to a display connected to the gpios (if the display is configured correctly).
