Did you ever get this resolved? I have the same error.

Thanks,

@KI6UVE - I also have this error on a Innovatek Quadra (can’t find an RPi for sale for love or money).

Bah. I thought I had something helpful to add. Never mind. It’s not working for me either.

but, looks like this is a known unsolved problem on 64 but pi os.

I know this is an old issue, but I had this happen to me while setting up MM on a Le Potato board.

Seems like a GPU issue, and you can bypass this by adding this snippet right before you call npm start:

export ELECTRON_DISABLE_GPU=1

In my case, I’m using PM2 to manage startup, so my ~/mm.sh file looks like this:

cd ./MagicMirror
export ELECTRON_DISABLE_GPU=1
DISPLAY=:0 npm start

I don’t know the full extent of the issue, but I know that this works and allows me to run MM.

Hopefully this helps you and anyone else looking for this in the future.
