          System browser launches no problem.

          Disabled the blocker rues for pfblocker on my iot vlan so its a straight shot to internet.

          Whats the best way to dump logs? I am on pm2. Your auto install script.

          Thanks

            @nx3xo the files are in the

            ~/.pm2/logs 
            

            folder

            notice the dot (.) I’m front of pm2

            in Linux there is no hidden attribute so by convention anything with a leading dot I not shown by normal file list commands

              Hopefully this is enough to narrow it down.

                @nx3xo in the script that does npm start
                add

                export ELECTRON_DISABLE_GPU=1
                

                before the npm start line

                with my install script, that is

                ~/MagicMirror/installers/mm.sh

                  So one of my installs is mm.sh and the other is run-start.sh.

                  The mm.sh one only shows this error in start.

                  [2883:1218/201556.298300:ERROR:object_proxy.cc(590)] Failed to call method: org.freedesktop.portal.Settings.Read: object_path= /org/freedesktop/portal/desktop: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown: The name org.freedesktop.portal.Desktop was not provided by any .service files

                  I think this has been covered and is insignificant, correct?

                  The run-start.sh one I’m going to reinstall.

                  Not sure how I ended up with 2 different installs, pretty I used your script.

                  So heres a question for ease of troubleshooting.

                  What if I do a couple dedicated proxmox lxc for servers and run the raspi displays as clients? I haven’t tried this method yet.

                    Made change. No dice on my original MM device 4x4 pixelsquare. Black screen plus cursor. Startup out looks clean.

                      @nx3xo run-start is done when I cannot find electron or it’s armv6l

                      then I just launch chromium over the mm server

                        I would like to sort this self hosted mm instance. It runs perfect in the web browser. Just blank screen with cursor. Is it possible a module can prevent everything from launching if it is too large and overlaps others?
