    On the plus side… It worked after answering Yes and MagicMirror started.

    It did take an unusually long time intalling dependencies and again fixing sandbox permissions. I almost gave up but it did finish, and works

      @Scott-M yes, how to avoid the prompt and handle it some other time

      searching leads to adding this in front of the apt full-upgrade command
      DEBIAN_FRONTEND=‘noninteractive’

      like this

      DEBIAN_FRONTEND=‘noninteractive’ apt full-upgrade -y

        @sdetweil said in MMM-CalendarExt3 and MMM-MonthlyCalendar blank:

        oninteractive’ apt full-upgrade -y

        That did not seem to make any difference, I tried apt-get update and then DEBIAN_FRONTEND=‘noninteractive’ apt-get --assume-yes full-upgrade

        but was still asked about the config file /labwc-greeter/autostart

          @Scott-M thanks… SO much fun…

          I am trying to test on my pi5 , I am remote from my home office, and do not have my hdmi/micro adapter… so am trying headless…

          pi imager, set ssh on, use pw authentication,
          pi boots, ssh is on, but password doesn’t work…

          using mac and ubuntu vm , and windows vm…

          also of interest is that the wifi connection also does not work , only ethernet

            Luckily I had a slow week at work!

            This seems to have worked:

            sudo apt-get -y  -o Dpkg::Options::=“–force-confdef” -o Dpkg::Options::=“–force-confnew” full-upgrade
            

            I have brought my Pi5 home, and a couple of micro SDs so happy to test when I can. I do have a lot of driving chilren around to do but some time in between.

                These seems to be a subtle difference between our keyboard layouts perhaps,

                raspberry.sh has this line

                upgrade_result=$(sudo apt-get -y  -o Dpkg::Options::=“–force-confdef” -o Dpkg::Options::=“–force-confnew” full-upgrade | pv -l -p)
                

                but the quotes around –force-confdef and –force-confnew are the wrong type . Should be:

                upgrade_result=$(sudo apt-get -y  -o Dpkg::Options::="–force-confdef" -o Dpkg::Options::="–force-confnew" full-upgrade | pv -l -p)
                

                It causes this error:

                dpkg: error: need an action option
                
                Type dpkg --help for help about installing and deinstalling packages [*];
                Use 'apt' or 'aptitude' for user-friendly package management;
                Type dpkg -Dhelp for a list of dpkg debug flag values;
                Type dpkg --force-help for a list of forcing options;
                Type dpkg-deb --help for help about manipulating *.deb files;
                
                Options marked [*] produce a lot of output - pipe it through 'less' or 'more' !
                E: Sub-process dpkg --set-selections returned an error code (2)
                E: Couldn't record the approved state changes as dpkg selection states
                
                

                Maybe just replace the quotes rather than copy and pase. I noticed the same thing when I copied the link you sent previously for the test branch.

                  @Scott-M I copied directly from your original post, it also shows the curved quotes

                      the MagicMirror forums assume word processing for quotes unless in a code block

                      once you save it, poof… it will never change back automatically
                      so it looks like you decided to add the code black later… (just experience )
