MM won't start after upgrading to 2.29.0

@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.
-
@JohnGalt the log show me the wayland/pm2 confusion
i opened a pm2 issue about this back in the early spring
-
@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.
-
@JohnGalt ok, dont know how to fix that
-
@sdetweil – OK, thanks for the effort!
-
@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.confI will mark this as solved now.

J JohnGalt has marked this topic as solved on

@JohnGalt fabulous!!
