Cerbo firmware update 2.89 causes 3rd party touch-screen to not work?

I did not purchase a Touch-50 with my Cerbo. I reasoned that everything can be accessed remotely, which it can. While building my off-grid setup it became apparent that having a monitor with the equipment would be an advantage, even though not a necessity. I had one of these 7" touch-screen for raspberry pi (https://raspberry.piaustralia.com.au/collections/displays/products/hd-7-inch-lcd-hdmi-touch-screen-display-tft-for-ra) lying around so I thought I'd give it a try.

Well, it worked fine... until Cerbo firmware upgrade V2.89 came along. This upgrade caused my touch display to not have a "touch" function. It still displays OK, but without the touch capability it is virtually useless to me. So, back to V2.85 we go and problem fixed. So, I'm left wondering whether V2.89 has any other features that I will really need, or is V2.85 sufficient?

Did anyone else come across this issue?

Edit: The insert function for hyper-links did not work for this post. Sorry.
