      I am still on 2.24 so I can use MMM-RTSPStream, also still on Jesse for the same reason.
      Should I run this to remove swap file?
      sudo swapoff -a -v
      sudo rm /swapfile

        @plainbroke so, I would be carefull… newer code doesn’t run on jesse and gosh knows what you have now…

        4 OS releases back (2017), stretch , buster, bullseye, now bookworm

        so, you have an 8gig machine, but can only use 2gig (32bit OS)

              Can I load the 64bit version without reloading all my MagicMirror modules ect?
              I tried this :

              cd ~/MagicMirror
              export external_browser=midori
              export ELECTRON_DISABLE_GPU=1
              DISPLAY=:0 npm start

                @plainbroke you have to use my start script to make Midori work, after you install it

                change the package json {“start” line to {“start1”

                then add a new start line

                {"start":"./run-start.sh"},
                

                and download the run-start.sh from my script repo, and put it in the MagicMirror folder, mark it executable
                chmod +x run-start.sh

                      Well I removed the package.json and packagelock.json from the folder MagicMirror sets in and ran your upgrade script and my MM loaded a whole lot faster and only time will tell if it is totally fixed or not…
                      I appreciate your patients dealing with this issue.
                      I will definitely add it to my saved stuff.
                      I would like to try to use a different browser and see if it fixes a few other issues since I am using a 32 bit OS.
