    Hi
    I just installed bookwork from scratch on an Rpi4 and attempted to manually install the mirror using the steps outlined but when I ran the mirror it gave the following error:

    Missing X server or $DISPLAY

    On the screen, i still see the ‘Welcome to Raspberry Pi Desktop, please click next to continue’ but it hasn’t actually entered onto the desktop. I feel this is the issue but I don’t have a keyboard or mouse set up. Is it possible to get past this screen with ssh only? Or is that not the problem? TIA

        @sdetweil yeh I managed to reinstall and get the blue lagoon image up so now everything works well. I used your script to install MM , are there any known issues for bookworm?

          @rama3124 not running MagicMirror, no…

          VNC didn’t work on the image before Dec 5
          some audio issues as well…

          but again, not specific to MM… maybe some modules impacted, but few
