@eightbit

delete one of them and replace the other with

		"start": "DISPLAY=\"${DISPLAY:=:0}\" ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js",

also do uname -a

[eightbit]

@sdetweil said in Magic Mirror doesn't work after a boot:

“start”: “DISPLAY="${DISPLAY:=:0}" ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js”,

{
        "name": "magicmirror",
        "version": "2.25.0",
        "description": "The open source modular smart mirror platform.",
        "main": "js/electron.js",
        "scripts": {
    "start": "DISPLAY=\"${DISPLAY:=:0}\" ./node_modules/.bin/electron js/electron.js",
        },
        "repository": {

[eightbit]
