MagicMirror on second Monitor
-
@Babene1 I have run two monitors one landscape, one portait with MM on each
using the electronOptions:{} settings.the cursor moves over both seamlessly.
that is one big display space.
the xrandr command will tell you …do you have two complete independant desktops?
-
@sdetweil With the displays showing “HDMI-A-1” etc, it’s in Wayland, xrandr doesn’t function under that. This is part of why I suggested going back to X11.
-
@BKeyport xrandr --query worked while running wayland, output above
wlr-randr does not do --query
-
@sdetweil Ahh, ok, I thought it was completely dead. Good to know.
-
You are absolutely brilliant, now it works.
I change in “raspi-config” to x11 desktop environment and now magicmirror run on second monitor.Thank you all for your tips

@BKeyport I believe you are right. I had the same issue. I tried to run the xrandr query and I could not print the displays. I looked everywhere, the only solution I found was to switch back to X11. This was the only way to get the electron option to treat the screen as a single screen and move the display to the second monitor.
Anyway, thanks a lot, reading this post solved my problem and I was trying to figure it out for a while !
