          @sdetweil – I wasn’t sure you [still] wanted me to do that before you had a chance to see the extended pm2 logs outputs. I will do it now and get back to you.

              @sdetweil – I did the pm2 work you asked for, and still have the same results.

              As this is a dev instance it’s not as critical as it might be for the regular [production] instance we use to get actual information. Am I better off just re-installing Magic Mirror from scratch on this machine?

                @JohnGalt its not MagicMirror its pm2 talking to the display manager

                you could use raspi-config to set the display manager back to x11

                without doing anything else

                  @sdetweil – Humm, I see what you mean. unfortunately this isn’t running on an actual Raspberry Pi so I don’t have that utility available to me.

                  It’s a VM running Ubuntu 23.10. If you can point me in the right direction, I’d be willing to give it a shot.

                        @sdetweil – I was able to search out a fix.

                        For the benefit of anyone else running Wayland and wanting or needing to switch back to x11, see: https://linuxconfig.org/how-to-use-x-instead-of-wayland-on-ubuntu-22-04 where you are asked to edit one line in a file, then reboot.

                        sudo nano /etc/gdm3/custom.conf
                        

                        I will mark this as solved now.
