      50% unfortunately the top error is still there, any other help would be appreciated.
      EINVAL: Invalid argument, write.

            like that:

            pi@raspberrypi:~ $ groups
            pi adm dialout cdrom sudo audio video plugdev games users input render netdev lpadmin gpio i2c spi
            pi@raspberrypi:~ $ 
            

            I have to see if you are in gpio group :)

                      your config looks good thus far, if you´re not getting it to run you can try my solution which is currently running like a charm

                      I installed it with MMM-Pir-Sensor-light and changed the code to use wayland,
                      to toggle the display on Pi5 this is working on a fresh OS install

                      WAYLAND_DISPLAY=“wayland-1” wlr-randr --output HDMI-A-1 --off
                      WAYLAND_DISPLAY=“wayland-1” wlr-randr --output HDMI-A-1 --on

                      possible outputs HDMI-A-1 (the one right next to usb-c), HDMI-A-2

                      If you monitor turns back on by itself after ~10 secs add “vc4.force_hotplug=1”(1=hmdi1 / 2=hdmi2 / 3=both) to the end of your /boot/firmware/cmdline.txt without creating a new line

                      All I did was change the command in activate and deactivate display function in the node_helper.js and added the cmdline parameter (dont forget to reboot)

                        I’m beginning to think that all this is Pi 5 related.
                        Also changing to mode 10 as previously stated screws with the weather modules which don’t load. Remove MMM-PIR from config and everything works fine.
                        It doesn’t help that I’m completely new to all this.
