New installation but even default is displayed

[kupperma]

Sorry forgot to answer:
I am on the raspberrypi over ssh.

The Display is connected directly via the HDMI Port of the pi . All equipment is right at arm distance, because I’m setting it up first before staching it behind the actual mirror.
But I am on the pi via ssh so that later I can do updates and probably adding new modules .

@kupperma which kind of pi? if Pi 4/5 is the port on the left (closest to power) hdmi port?

[kupperma]

This is an pi 3 Model B V1.2
the HDMI is about 2 Centimeters right to the MicroUSB Power input.

I updated to raspianOS bookworm first.

@kupperma weird…

do you have keyboard to pi system desktop?

if so, ctrl-alt-t to open a terminal window and do

echo $DISPLAY

[kupperma]

Yes I have_
Ok this does not work.
So it seems to be raspianOS failure.

@kupperma I ONLY use SSH to install MM… never use the actual display.

have pi 0w, 02w, 3, 4,5 odroid, jetson nano, chromebox, chromebook,
and multiple virtual machines under vmware

NEVER seen npm run start say successful but not see it on screen…

also, on the screen if u can,
ctrl-c to stop the in ssh version
on screen
cd ~/Magicmirror
npm start

@kupperma said in New installation but even default is displayed:

Ok this does not work.

what does not work?

[kupperma]

The display does not react to ctrl-alt-t and there is no terminal visible.

[sdetweil]

@kupperma ok, on the menu bar there is a terminal window, click that

[kupperma]

I know what you mean:

in an earlier installation I could move the mouse and the menubar got visible or I could press F11 and the menubar got visible. But now nothing works.
So should I reinstall raspian and start from the beginning or is there a work a round?
