As you have posted NONE information I can't answer in other terms than generall. Perhaps.

I us rasberry pi zero and rasberry pi os, i have bought a touchscreen from polish website with description Driver chip ILI9486, resolution320*480, 3,5` interface type SPI, touch, i wanna use it (for now) as kiosk that shows only one website Time.is. To test it i use the fbi to show images on the screen, and other thing to test touch, two things worked great, but when i try to use it to show the website i had to turn on the "startx" but i get error with "EE" NO screen detected <@796000224690307072>

As in the FAQ topic, you need to downgrade the "Raspberry Pi OS" version Bullseye or use raspi-config . There is a possibility in raspi-config to switch from Wayland to X but I haven't seen anyone been successful with this. The cause is that the most recent version of "Raspberry Pi OS" version Bookworm uses the graphical interface "Wayland" and the previous Bullseye uses X. If someone has found a driver for the graphical interface "Wayland" for SPI displays please tell me, I did a search for 3-4 month ago.
