I have never been able to get the gui working 100% no matter what i do
its stuck in 800x480 resolution, however to get things like firefox
and certain GUI's working correctly, you have to install Mesa-libEGL1
and Mesa-libEGL-devel packages, this will prompt you to remove the
raspberypi-userland package, you want to do this, have mesa replace
it, it is the only way you will get anything to actually work
correctly. Hopefully this helps, it sure would be nice if someone
could figure out why its stuck in 800x480, so far I have not had any
luck yet, anyone has pointers please let us know.

That said, I now have acquired the "official" RPi 7" touchscreen to use with a second RPi2, and it actually displays the text console nicely on first boot of the Build 385 JeOS image, but on second boot it stays completely black (not even the backlight is on). In addition, the network interface also does not come up (same as on first boot), so the build gets completely unusable for me.
Some positive news: In the current 2016.03.25 image both the screen and the ethernet port work now, even on second boot! \o/
I now have an minimal LXQt desktop running on that screen, with Firefox to show a web-based dashboard (if I could boot into a Firefox right away and have some kind of windowmanager so "popup" windows work, I wouldn't even need a desktop environment to run, I usually just want to display some web-based UI).
That said, once the display actually shows stuff, the second question will be the touch input - if the rpi-ft5406 driver available in the kernel right now?
I see I can modprobe it and then lsmod lists it, so it seems to exist. Need to play with how to actually get it working with Xorg, though.
